I am working with a debt settlement company, will this affect my ability to be approved to rent an apartment?
I have 2 credit card loan accounts that are currently 2 or 3 months delinquent from working with the debt settlement company. I am current on all of my other bills, student loans, etc. I just found out I am moving a few hours away in July and now have to worry about land lords doing credit checks. I've been contemplating cutting my losses and pulling out of the debt settlement program already anyway. But, having already waited this long and done the damage I'm just not sure what to do. But I am afraid having delinquent accounts will cause me to not be approved for an apartment. My boyfriend would be on the lease also and he has excellent credit. I have never missed a rent payment or any other payments at all until enrolling in this program. The amount of my debt is not completely out of control, but I was feeling very desperate and enrolled in this program as a way out, but I am not sure it was my smartest idea, especially now that I am moving and need to rent an apartment. I welcome any thoughts and comments i feel very stuck and helpless and i need some advice To the several people who have plugged their loan companies as answers, please stop. I am not interested in a loan.

Is it better to settle your debts on your own then hire a debt settlement company?
I had three payday loans worth $600. With intrest they were like $1000. After my account went to collections, I kept telling them I am doing everything in my power to pay my loan off. Then when I had the lump sum, two of the companies both agreed to settle my accounts in full for the original amount of the loan, without all the interest and high fees. My one loan was $500 and they settled for $328. Then my other loan was 500 and they settled for 400. The debt settlement company wanted to charge 300 and then 50 bucks amount, so anything extra would be used towards the loan. It seems like it would have cost a lot more to use the payday loan settlement company. All they can do in the end is ask for a lower amount.
