With the economic times they are willing to work with you than lose $. They may restrict the card depending on the lender until its under control. But thats fine. No more swiping for now until your caught up again. Hope recovery went well.

I will need to start leaving some high untreated high payment cards unpaid. I am hoping that at some point soon creditors start calling me to plan a do able repayment method. My question is.. if I continue to pay some accounts that are from banks not associated with a bank that I stopped paying do you think I risk losing that card as well, or is one separate from the other? If there is a chance that all cards are closed regardless of which I am paying and which I am not l, I might as well stop paying all of them and hope for a good payoff quote from the creditors. This is so scary and out of character but I it's become hard to keep up with these interest rates? Thank you in advance
Yes you stand to lose all cards. My advice is to consult with a local bankruptcy lawyer.
Yes, most banks are using (monthly/quarterly) soft-pulls to stay updated on your overall payment history.
It may take some time for them to figure out that you have problems with cards from other banks, but that does not help you.
You need a long-term strategy to pay everything off (or at least pay the minimum on every card).
So I recommend that you take the initiative and call the banks before they will call you.
But perhaps a professional debt counselor is the better idea - perhaps there are some options regarding the origin of the debt: medial emergency.
