Consumers Are Not Paying Down Debts.
Chicago -- Consumers did not include paying down debt as one of their New Year's resolutions, according to a survey conducted on behalf of TransUnion.
The survey found that in 2007, one-quarter of consumers missed making one or more of their debt payments on time, with the bulk of the delinquencies coming in utility, credit card and medical debt areas.
And only 17% said that paying down debt is one of their top priorities for 2008, according to TransUnion. That's down from 22% who cited paying down debt as a priority in last year's survey.
Moreover, the survey found that consumers in the 35- to 49-year-old-age bracket are the ones most likely to express concern about mortgage payments.
