Okay…so I pay a little bit more then the minimum fee every month and my balance still never seems to go down!!!! Last month I paid $100 and my balance only went down about $30! All the rest went to finance charges. I’m living pay check to pay check and I can’t afford to pay much more than that. This card is killing me! I asked the company (WaMu…previously Providian) to lower it. But they said no. I’ve gotten denied for other “blance transfer” offers I see online. But my credit is decent (about 670). I owe about $3500 on it and I’ve been stuck at that amout for months. And I don’t even use the card anymore.

Does anyone know of any good card i can do a balance transfer on? Or any program for smaller debt relief? I feel so hopeless.
