Hi irumasghar,

If you are unable to pay your credit card debts, I would suggest you to look for a either debt consolidation or debt settlement. I don't think its a good idea to file a bankruptcy. In a debt settlement, your payments may be reduced up to 40%-60% depending upon your situation. Whereas in debt consolidation, the interest rates can be reduced.

I know of a community who are into debt consolidation "debtconsolidationcare.com". You can check out their website and talk to their financial coach. Let's hope he will be able to assist you in a better way.

Thanks
