Well, there has been a lot of discussion regarding credit unions and cross-collateralization in reaffirmation agreements.
I have a car loan, second mtg and cc with the same CU
I filed CH 7 last month but want to keep the car.
First reaffirmation came thru with cross-collateralization clause, adding approx $4k balance to the car balance. I called the BK dept of the CU and said no. But I would reaffirm if 1) extra $4k removed 2) current month put on back of loan 3) extend loan extra 60 days 4) reduce payment 5) cross-colleralization removed, title sent to me upon payment in full
CU agreed! Sent the agreement to my attorney in writing yesterday (I saw it yesterday) and bonus - they dropped the interest rate to 5%.
But I of course lose my account with them the minute I sign this.
Is there something else I should be on the lookout for in this agreement?
