What I would do in your case is provide them with a hardship letter outlining your current situation. Along with that I would provide a financial statement to them advising of what you currently pay out each month and how much money you have left over. As long as you do this there is not much that they will do, I would also suggest trying to make a small payment to the account each month to show them you do have intentions of repaying this debt. No creditor and/or collection agency can refuse a payment no matter how small it is and if they decide to take legal action you can show the judge the letter and statment you sent to them. As well he will look at the small payment you did make and probably dismiss the action.
