debt in collections when making payments by: Gerri
Brian,
I could use some more information about this debt. What type of debt is it? Have you fallen behind at all?
There is a common misconception that as long as you are making payments on an account it can't be sent to collections, and that's generally not true. If you fall behind on a debt, the creditor may be able to send a debt to collections even though you are making an attempt to pay.
