    So I just graduated from college about 2 months ago. Within those 4 years, I accumulated a credit card debt of about $9,000. This debt is among just 3 credit cards and most of the debt is of course over-the-limit and late payment charges.

    Here's a catch. While in my college town, I gave my creditors my college address in hopes of being able to pay some of the debt down in my last 2 years there. Complete failure. In fact, I ended up in more and worst debt with a checking account...another battle.

    With that said, I have not received any statements, collection reports, or phone calls that I know of since I have been back in my home town.

    WHAT DO I DO?

    I'm tempted to just start from square one with the whole credit-repair battle. But I would hate to revamp any "sleeping" agencies. Should I still continue with validation letters or wait until they start harassing me?


    Thanks in advance.

    have you pulled your credit reports yet? do that first, so that you can see what you're up against.
