Lawsuit For Target Credit Card Debt

Card image cap

Long story short the last couple of years me and my husband have done IVF, lost our son prematurely, had another miscarriage and a highly complex pregnancy with our rainbow baby. We unfortunately had to pay so many medical bills we couldn’t make payments on my Target Credit card which had a 1,000 limit. It racked up to in interest 2,700 over the years. I know it’s not smart, mistakes were made and we will never do this again. I got a letter in the mail to settle the debt owed for 2,100 so we were planning on doing that, one week later I was served the law suit and I answered right away. I called and called and finally spoke to someone because I wanted to settle the debt, I didn’t want to fight it in court as Ive heard people having success with who are willing to pay. The person for the creditor/attorneys office I spoke to in the phone confirmed with me they will accept the settlement payment. I asked for it in writing, it never came. We paid the 2,100 in full a week earlier than the date provided!!!! I filed multiple motions of proof of payment with the receipt and requesting it to be dismissed. We stopped receiving letters and have received nothing from anyone but when I check the courts website it said the case is complete and it’s in favor of the attorney and I owe the full amount now and extra court fees ???? I still haven’t received anything in the mail. Is this the consequence of not using an attorney? Is there anything I can do? I just wanted to pay the agreed amount and move on and I thought I was doing the right thing. Any advice is appreciated.
