My ahusband and I are disabled and we have 3 kids we are having transportation trouble our car broke down and we have no money to fix the car and need money for this months car payment. We have no public transportation here in Boaz,Alabama and my husband and I can't walk too well very far, both of us have bad back and athritis. So its very important that we need help before the 10th of December to get it fixed and car payment made. Please help us with this so we can get our quality of life back. We are not used to be in this kind of a financial bind,especially around Christmas time, we have no money for Christmas this year.  Help us in Alabama and thank you, God Bless You!

HELP!! I NEED TO GET MY CAR BACK

Help!! I am in desperate need. My car was just repossessed. I am 3 months behind on my payments. I am a single mother of 2 children. My daughter has been very sick and i have had to pay a lot of money to take care of her. Get her the meds and care she needs. I have always made my payments on time until 3 months ago when my daughter got terribly ill. I do work full time however the money i bring in just didnt allow for my car payments. I am able to reclaim my car if i am able to pay the 3 months payments and repo fees. Current due is $1250. As of right now i have no idea how i will be getting to work tomorrow. I live about 25 miles from where i work. If anyone knows of a way i can get the funds to get my car back please let me know. Or if any of you can find it in your heart to help it would be greatly appreciated. I am desperate at this point.

Need help with car payment

Not doing too good. I am a student n work a full-time job. I fell behind in my bills with helping my family out. Now I'm behind and one can help me. My landlord let me work out a payment arrangement. But my car company is giving me until today to come up with 200 dollars or they will repo. I need my car. It's not much money. But lots to me because I don't have it. Is anyone able to help or offer advice. Here's a donate link also. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=T8AFG7MZYDKVC

My Bad Luck..

Well where do I begin.. I am a single mother of four, I started a cleaning business but things have increasingly gotten worse. From the people I hired not performing up to standards to even stealing cleaning products from myself and even the homeowners. If that weren't bad enough, I lost more clients due to the economy (some were unable to even afford $2 an hour) and I can't even cover the cost of supplies on that. It really hurts because I really got close to some of the people I cleaned for :( I have looked everywhere for employment to no avail. At one point I even cleaned for a lady that had 3 children, which is why I continued to do it, her house was almost 8,000 sq. ft. and she only paid me $60. After gas, time, and expenses I barely broke even, if at all.. Now my car has been towed while visiting my sick grandmother for a few days & I can't afford to pay all the fees. I have also been illegally locked out of my house by a shotty rental company. My neighbor said 3 days after I left to go out of town they had a Uhaul backed up to my house taking my belongings out. In fact he took a picture on his phone of them taking my bed & mattresses on the back of the guy who cuts grass' truck (the landlord's nephew). I have found so many people who have written complaints of the way they treat people. It's not right one of the owners even attended my church. I trusted them & gave them $400 b4 I went out of town (which I have a reciept for) since they conveniently did not get my money order I sent. I don't believe in suing but I've been taken advantage of a lot & when is enough enough..? Capstone Investments need to stop treating people so poorly! PLEASE give me some advice.. i've even went to two other states to find work, but now I have no shelter for me or my children.

Need some Help or Advice

I've been looking for a second job and hopefully will be successful soon. Also I'm trying to help my mom find financial help. The two biggest financial drains are monthly car payments and insulin costs. Does anyone have any advice? Where would someone go to find help with such matters when the bank doesn't seem to care?

My name is Crystal. I am 26 and have been struggling all my life with depression and other emotional disorders. It is hard for me to keep a job because I often find it hard to get along with other and I have flashbacks and react to those.

I am unable to get SSI or disability because the government doesn't see this as a disability but still I am unable to work because of these flashbacks.

I have a one year old son who I love dearly. I have a husband who is also unable to work.

I am still seeking employment but can't find anything right now. I am also working on my GED.

We need help with the car payment, If we lose the car I cannot look for a job, get my son to Early head start, or get my husband to his counseling or to mine.

I am not one to accept handouts but I need the help. I just need a boost to beable to get on my feet somehow.

Hi my wife and I have hit an extremely rough month.  We moved to Florida 4 months ago so I could take a better job.  Everything was going great until 2 weeks ago.  Our house was burglarized and $1900 in cash was stolen out of our bedroom, along with our 2 dogs being terrorized and spray painted(they still haven't recovered emotionally from the ordeal).  We were able to finance a car through a buy here pay here place that takes bad credit applicants which was a blessing for us.  Now tomorrow is dooms day for us....we owe $600 for our car which is the usual $100 weekly payment plus $500 for the tags which they spread out payments on for us, our $500 rent is due, and we got a shutoff notice from the water company that we owe $200.  Neither of us expected the water company because we mailed in a payment 2 weeks ago with a money order.  Apparently the money order never got to them because they said they did not receive it.  In order to get the money order replaced through Amscot we need to mail a copy of the receipt in and it takes 6 weeks to get back.  All of this comes to a head tomorrow when all 3 bills are due and since we were robbed we have NOTHING.  If anyone can help us please do, you will be rewarded with good Karma, and know that we will return the favor and the money.  Please help us!!! 806-223-8631

I am a single mom of 4 kids, 16, 15, 12, 8. My youngest is allergic to wheat so every meal costs a bit more because I can't use quick-make easy fixes or I'll make him sick.

 I am struggling to keep up on rent, power and car I got shoved into by a slick salesman when I was desperate for a car. I am now  612.00 behind on that car and they are calling my friends and family and have begun precedures to repossess. I am 950.00 behind on rent, but I can work that out. I have tapped very available resource, locked myself up with mutiple payday loans and drained my 401k dry trying to get on top and stay on top. I have no other resources. I hae gone back to school and my next scheduled PELL grant disbursement isn't until mid-late December. Last time I told the dealership I was waiting for a disbursement, they told me that wasn't going to work, they needed full payment now or they were coming for the car. Then, like now, I can't sleep, barely eat and worry every minute of every day when they will show up and snatch the car. I had my son clean our stuff out of it this morning.

 I work full time, plus ever scrap of OT I can but I have an injury in both arms that make it hard to get there every day. I also have chronic bronchitis which knocks me down out of the blue for 2-3 days at a time. I have been to doctors for all of this but nothing they prescribe seems to stick. Lately I cant even afford the copay, let alone whatver mix of meds they may prescribe. I dont have insurance on the car because I can't afford it. I tried to ge tit and just couldn't keep it.

 I need help quickly because if I lose this car I will very likely lose my job, my house and everything else.  I am willing to barter my skills as a writer, researcher, data entry, phone work, yardwork, anything (legal) in exchange because I am reasonably sure I will not be able to pay the funds back anytime soon. 

I don't want help with the PDLs. I will deal with when I can. I can work something out with my landlord, and I just paid the power down. I need help with this car. I will be getting out of it as soon as I can because the terms are junk and the car is not worth whay they charging me for it.  I just need to keep it until I can get something else. Or if I can come up with 750.00 (down+insurance) for a local friendly dealer I have been talking to, I can let this one go. I just have to have a car.

I work 40 miles from my house, and none of my coworkers live near enough to make the trip. None of my friends can afford to run me 80 miles a night (I work graveyard  1030p-730a) and I can barely keep gas for myself, let alone fuel a carpool.

 Thank you to anyone who can help.

I found this page and can't believe that there may be help.  I am so behind on my car payment they will be releiving me of it this month if I don't come up with something.  I work everyday and I have several things that are behind.  If they take my car I don't know how I would get to work, my car payment got behind due to I was about to lose my house.  My mortgage is about caught up, but I can't lose my car.  I got entangled in payday loans and can't see my way out.  I've had thoughts of the wrong kind lately just because I can't pay all my bills.  Help me.  I pray everyday and I know that God will intervene in his own time.  Sometimes I truly......Help.

Please Help

This is very hard for me to do, ask people for help. But that's why im here, that's what this site is for right? I need little help to make it through right now. Whether it is $100 for my gas bill, $500 to catch my rent up or a gift certificate for some winter clothes. Even some gluten free food would go along way. Someone please have a heart we need $180 to catch up our car payment or we lose it. THANK YOU
