17 04 07 – Credit Card Offers

Day 107

When I arrived in Canada one of the first things I did was apply for a credit card. I was promptly turned down with no reason given.
Two weeks after filing my first tax return, and this might be a coincidence, I get three credit card offers in the mail. I accepted the first one to arrive – from the company who turned me down the first time around.

What will happen if I don’t pay my credit card bills?

Question: What will happen if I don’t pay my credit card bills?

Answer: The first thing that happens is a derogatory remark of late payment goes on your credit file when you are 30 days, 60 days, and 90 days late. Your credit score is based 33 percent on payment history, so any late payments are a serious matter and can jeopardize new credit, insurance rates and sometimes even job applications.

A late payment could also bump up your APR to a default APR, which is quite often very steep. But continued late payments could also bring on harassing phone calls and demands for payment. If serious enough, it could lead to judgments, liens, and lawsuits for payment. Late payments are nothing to fool with.

You can demand the debt collectors stop contacting you, and if you are not subject to judgments, nothing more than a very tarnished credit history will result. But don’t bother trying to apply for more credit, a job or housing rental, all of which require a credit check these days.
