What To Do About Credit Card Debt

Most of us have at least one credit card.  Some of us have lots of credit cards.  Most of us also carry a balance on those credit cards.  We have grown accustomed to charging instead of paying cash.  We have a tendancy to spend more on our credit cards than we would spend if we were using cash.  We pay our monthly minimums, keep charging and never really seem to make a dent.  It's a never-ending cycle.  Since most of us aren't independently wealthy (I mean if we were wouldn't we be paying cash?) we seem to get deeper and deeper into debt.  What do we do? Consolidate? File bankruptcy? Live with it?  There are plenty of options out there, you just have to find the one that's right for you.  For information and articles on credit cards and credit card debt, please visit: CreditCardDebtSite.info and CreditCardStuff.info.

Credit Card Debt Defined 

Credit card debt is an example of unsecured consumer debt, accessed through credit cards.

Debt results when a client of a credit card company purchases an item or service through the card system. Debt accumulates and increases via interest and penalties when the consumer does not pay the company for the money he or she has spent.

The results of not paying this debt on time are that the company will charge a late payment penalty (generally in the US from $10 to $40) and report the late payment to credit rating agencies. Being late on a payment is sometimes referred to as being in "default". The late payment penalty itself increases the amount of debt the consumer has.

When a consumer has been late on a payment, it is possible that other creditors, even creditors the consumer was not late in paying, may increase the interest rates the consumer is paying. This practice is called universal default.
