I suggest calling them today and work out a repayment plan. Im sure you can setup a $150/mo over 24 months to satisfy this and the judgement doesnt hit your CR. You may even be able to negotiate a PFD at the end of the repayment plan.

I do intend to fully fight this; if they get a judgment, I am going to countersue because this company HAS violated a few of my rights, one being THEY did NOT report to any of the bureaus that this account was in dispute (also applies to Oral Disputes) - this is a clear violation of my rights; and they are reporting the account TWICE, one listing is the same as the OC listing, the second one as NEW, and changed date of last activity, another violation. I did check my document after court and I was right, there was no real validation from Providian stating they have authority to collect. What they show was validation from LVNV.Another reason I am not giving up, I do NOT owe what they claim, they bought that account for maybe $79.00. Knowing you are being screwed with is hard to let go, and if they get a judgment yes it is on my report for 7 years, but I have all the necessary backup paperwork to show any mortgage company as I have found they will consider the big picture.I emailed the attorney right after with the transcript and told him to let me know if he could/would take it; because not only do I want this company, I want the CRs as well, they are also violating my rights by "verifying" and not reading the actual letters.Some times people just have to fight until they know they can't win anymore; and I'm done being taken advantage of. I am not one of those people who just doesn't feel like paying their bills; I couldn't at the time because I was going through a divorce.Thanks to all of you - I so appreciate the words of wisdom!!
