I have a debt consolidation loan through my bank that I do not think I can keep paying. Right now it is getting deducted out of my bank account when my check hits the account. Money is getting tight and I can't keep paying that. I am trying to get them to work with me on a lower payment, interest, home equity loan,something, etc. But it's not working. The only other option is pointing towards bankruptcy on this loan. Is there something else, how do I go about doing that. Also I own a home with my husband, that wouldn't be affected would it? I can't imagine that just not paying the loan and having it go into the credit bureau would be better? Please help, I am so stressed out.
