You need this book,
By Aftermath (Ottawa, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Wolf at the Door: What to Do When Collection Agencies Come Calling (Paperback)
I first picked up this book at the library, and it changed my life. Sounds corny, but it's true. After reading it I finally had a little hope that I could resolve my serious debt problems. I had to buy my own copy so I could refer to it over and over.If you're struggling with debt, you need this book right now. Before you make another payment or talk to a collection agency, read this book. It contains information you'll never find anywhere else, and you will probably be shocked by what you learn. I can't say enough good things about "The Wolf at the Door." Buy it, you will be so glad you did.

This review is from: The Wolf at the Door: What to Do When Collection Agencies Come Calling (Paperback)
Mark Silverthorn knows his stuff when it comes to all things 'credit'. A great number of people experience a set back in life that may lead to problems with credit. This book is meant to empower you and instill knowledge about debt collectors and your rights in these situations, credit rating agencies and your FICO score, and other strategies for getting out of debt.It is realistic, helpful, and completely relevant to Canadian credit laws. If the wolf is at your door, you must read this book!
