Write-Off Credit Card Debt?

in Reclaim bank & credit card charges
Does anyone have any experience of writing off credit card debt? There seems to be a whole host of companies offering this but I always think "if it sounds too good to be true....." I am considering it as there are genuine instances of 'unfairness' that I can pinpoint from my providers (not just a get out of debt-jail free thing!). Don't want to venture into this without some research though and other people's experiences are invaluable. Any comments?

    I'll answer by saying I can't answer because it is not something that I understand to give adequate advice on.
    I have not worked for NatWest Bank since February 2009

    Oh please. Is there anything at all to suggest that 'Sarah_F' is a real person? On the other hand maybe she is. Now that really would be 'too good to be true'
