The relentless collection tactics of creditors can frustrate even the most patient person. Creditors usually adopt all kinds of ploys to recover their debt. If the person who owes the debt delays in filing for bankruptcy, there’s always the possibility the creditors can obtain wage garnishment or bank account garnishment orders, which is likely to make things even harder when there wasn’t enough money to go around before the garnishment.
