Is there any service that could tell me who I owe money too so that when I file for bankruptcy, nothing is missed. I no idea where to start with this. Any body know anything that could help? Would your credit report do this?
Thanks

Get a copy of all 3 credit reports. You're done.

Edit: get your flame suit on, a bunch of holier than thou credit thumpers are about to cast level 19 spell of infinite dirtbag on you.

Yep. I applied for a car loan yesterday and found out I owed $28 to a doctor's office back in 2001 I didn't know about. That'll do it.

(Nuff said)
It is a big decision

It will haunt you for 3-5 years at a min.

Then you have a chance to show you can redeem yourself.

Look at is this something to make life easier for you or to solve a problem that is dragging you down?

Somebody didn't get the memo.

Most people file bankruptcy twice.

What kind of crap is this statement?

Regardless, it's too easy to file bankruptcy. More restrictions are needed at the minimum to curb the idiots who run up all their available credit for bullcrap, then claim bankruptcy to get out from it all....guess who ends up paying for all that stuff?

No,
No they don't
"Most" people pay their debts and don't file at all.

I am filing today

My wife and I were stupid when we was younger, pretty much lived off credit cards while we were in school figuring we would pay them back when we got good jobs. whoever said "to make god laugh tell him your plans was right"

fast forward a bit and we decide to go into credit counseling or debt management or whatever you want to call it. My pride was telling me "you bought the stuff, you pay for it" so I figured I would live like a pauper for a few years while they got paid off

fast forward a bit again, now that I have a kid and the medical bills to pay for an emergency c-section as well as other various hospital stays for mom and/or baby, as well as a bunch of that credit card debt left over, bankruptcy seems like a pretty good idea

My wife and I are willing to be poor and go without most of what we want and some of what we need. I will NOT make my daughter go without anything she needs

Dude your baby was born 1 month ago. You're just getting started spending $$$ ... I'd wait a few years while it racks up.

Congrats on the bebe!

Good to hear this is truly your last resort. Far too many ppl spend like mad seemingly on purpose and then declare bankruptcy, which is freaking stupid and unethical, imho.

all the best.
