and it was supposedly a "reputable" one, recommended highly by just about everyone.  Searched online, you name it.  Thought I did my homework pretty good.  Well, they were a rip off.  Thankfully I kept logs of everyone I talked to about what and when, etc.  They screwed up several of my accounts, didn't pay them for almost 3 months (even though they received payment) and none of my interest rates were adjusted.  I contacted one of the lawers for the cc company that was handling the collection at that point since my company failed to do so and they said that this was a very common thing and that they really did not like to deal with companies like that, would rather deal directly with the person. 

Good luck to you though, sounds like you actually found one that does some kind of work. 

They cut production to get the prices up again. If we're not _____ by the oil nations, we're ____ by the American oil companies. G-R-E-E-D is the name of the game in the last few years.

Government tells us to cut our driving. Well, I hate to tell them but between a pickup and a car, we drove a total of  5,838 miles last year, and most of that mileage was 100 miles a day for DH to go to work. I get to the store once a month anymore, 2 mile round trip. The only thing I can cut down on is to walk to the store and back. Been there done that, but I'm no spring chicken and carrying 5 bags or more, well....you'd see a bag every 100 feet.

I don't see how it's any different that american companies are hiring illegals here versus american companies offshoring (which I detest) because the issue on either side is -- bottom line - the dollar -  and what American employers are willing to pay today...........and in either case, we are all losing our jobs to foreigners (whether they are legal, offshore, or illegal workers).

just my opinion.........

yourself first. That's what I did. We had a medical problem and we went from paying on time for years to 90 days behind in 3 months. We wound up living off the cards...which is an absolute no-no, but couldn't be helped, and wound up with $45,000 in CC debt.

 I called them all and they all have programs for hardship cases. They set up payments for you which are lower than what you would usually be paying and they lowered my interest rates again (in the good times, I was paying 9%) from 19% to  21% down to 9% again and one company even lowered my interest rate to 6%!

They automatically take the money from your account and you just have to remember to keep the money in there.  Payments are much lower since they lowered the interest rate and all the cards will be paid off in 4 years.

One company did close my account, but none of the others did. I haven't used a credit card for 2 years and most of the cards I had for 10 years.

Hope this helps and good luck. There is light at the end of the tunnel.

All of those companies you listed are non profits as described and accepted by the IRS.

I'm afraid you're going to be out of luck with your animal rescue lady, unless she reorganizes as a non profit, or makes you officially part of the company.

But, DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT.  Check with your tax person, or if you can't reach her, find another tax person.  Call H&R Block.  There may be some loopholes that you can use to get the deduction.

not too long ago.

My son had a DUI and the ins was going to cancel us but they said if I only insured myself and my son showed proof of other ins that they'd keep me.  Could this work for you??  Just a thought...

Everyone who lives in Florida should be aware that the PIP insurance as we know it is soon to expire on 10/1/07.  Please go to the web site http://www.wpbf.com/index.html.  In the center, scroll down a little in the middle is a survery that asks Do you think personal injury protection (PIP) should be eliminated?  Please go on line and vote NO.  Send this email to everyone you know.  We want hundreds of votes.

Also, please send a letter to Governor Charlie Crist,o to Speaker Marco Rubio and Senate President Ken Pruitt.  You can find their email addresses on MyFlorida.com.  It is very important that they add this to their agenda on 6/12/07 for their special session.

Thanks for your help. 

It sounds like you're a great friend and neighbor!

Our neighbor never gave us their insurance information.  Our situation is a different because in addition to physical scars, our daughter has emotional scars from this dog bite that will take a long time to recover from. 

I did some research on the dog bite law.  Sometimes insurance companies will cancel the homeowners policy if there is a dog bite on the property.  If they don't cancel it, the insurance premium will increase by a lot.  I think this is why they didn't try to go through the insurance company and thought we would accept this small check. 

We believed them when they said they would take care of everything.  I guess we're just too nice!

Does insurance cover any of the cost for implaints or dentures?
