The ongoing credit crisis combined with intense political pressure has made many major banks very amenable to easing the loan terms for most borrowers displaying repayment stress. While federal-backed programs for mortgages have been getting most of the press, banks will modify credit card, home equity and even auto loan terms, too. Many banks may be quick to reduce the cost of your loans, but they certainly don’t advertise this! The trick, is finding the right person to talk to in these behemoth institutions.
