Consumers will still be saddled with their debts, and those lenders who had programs for bankrupt consumers will likely sit on the sidelines until consumers have paid well through their Chapter 13 bankruptcy.

They will be forced to pay higher rates, or face outright declination for years. And there’s nothing they can do about it. All told, the new bankruptcy reform bill is a huge win for credit grantors and a huge loss for the vast majority of consumers who file for bankruptcy protection.
