I was layed off from a job and I had to take a job for less. 1600 a month differance. I could not afford my discover card payments anymore and im on welfare now. I tried on several occasions to make payment arrangements but the refused. They could not garnish my paycheck because years ago i chose to have my child support garnished so i didnt accidently miss any paymenys. My new employer requires direct deposit to pay employees. I was paid 400 for this pay period and discover garnished all of it from my bank account. That is 100 percent of my disposable income(My balance was 0 before the deposit). But by law, they can only take 25 percent of disposable income. Now I have no money to pay for gas to get to work or pay my heating bill. It's middle of winter with over a foot of snow on the ground. I have children to support in my home as well. I'm going to loose my home if I can't make my rent payment. There has to be something I can do to at least get some of my pay. Plz advise.
Sounds like a prime candidate for a bankruptcy.
