put all the money on your credit card and pay both of the other bills with your credit card. That way everything gets paid. Good luck

Pay your cable/telephone with credit card, then use your cash to pay the credit card.

pay your credit cards first and you can pay your cable and phone bill next month- they will not shut off your service after one month of no payment.

Time to get rid of cable and start cutting corners and getting your spending under control!!! I'd pay the telephone first and then the credit cards.

Get rid of your Visa and get a fee free Visa. Virgin dont charge annual fees and there are many others as well.

depends on whether you care more about your credit or getting cable/phone service. Either way, you have a cash flow problem. Either earn more (if possible) or spend less.

Are those your minimum payments? First you should try calling the cable company and seeing if you can make a partial payment or defer the payment for a few days, maybe 10. If you're going to short anyone it should be them because they don't charge interest and if they were to assess a late fee it would not be as high as the credit card company's would be

i personally would pay cable and tv before another credit card

I have had a similar problem in the past and have phoned the companies involved saying that I intend to pay back what I owe and that things are tight right now. I have had good success with companies extending leniency. You could phone all three to ask to make arrangements and if one says no, then pay them.

Pay your credit cards first. They have the worst late fees and if you pay late your interest rate could go up. I feel for you, i've been there before. Good Luck!


Jillian
when is each due? all exactly at the same time or is one of them due fairly close to your next pay period? Do you pay cash or with a checking account?


Laura
Call each one and try to make arrangements. Each will normally give you some room, credits are usually the easiest to work with you. Then you will know which ones you need to send how much to based on how they work with you. Some companies will let you wait a few weeks or let you make a partial payment. Just be sure to give them the heads up before you decide to pay late or short pay.

Good luck, I have the same dilemma most weeks. Which one do you value the most? If one could wait till next payday try that and see how that works!

I totally agree with just curious! So convenient that you have just the right amount to pay off both credit cards and use the card as payment for the cable/telephone...hmmmmm. sure this is not a test???


NETTA M
Are these your minimum payments? I would pay the bare minimum on the card with the lowest fees, pay everything else on the other card through money gran $5.50 and the payments there the same day.Then use that card to pay your cable/telephone bill, you'll just be $5.50 short on one, or $2.25 short on both or however you choose to do it. Either way noneygram is faster anf everythingis paid.

Pay the credit cards and just let them shut off your cable and phone. Everyone has a cell phone these days anyway.

I say try to cut back your spending so this doesn't happen again. And also discontinue one of your credit cards as soon as you can.

By the way, if you miss payment on you credit cards, it goes on your credit report.

Good luck!
