My income dropped to unemployment benefits and my bills have not changed. There are 11 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I am nervous about the credit card minimums. Did any lender work with you?

Subscriptions first, then the phone plan. I saved about $900 a year just by switching to a cheaper plan.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 2 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
