Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Illinois
I had a credit card about 4 years ago that never got paid off due to personal issues. I cancelled the card but have been being charged interest for the last 3 years. I would like to pay it off but i feel i should not have to pay the $750 in accrued interest. Am i liable for that interest?

Yes, although chances are the amount is negotiable if you speak with the creditor and offer a lump sum payment or some other acceptable payment arrangement.
