They can't really "recommend" the highest points. That's not how the FICO algorithm works. If you pay in full and they remove all derogatory information and change the status to "Pays as Agreed", then your FICO score will improve.

If it's from a third party then I would pay the settlement amount. I think it's a collection tactic. And it's the first time I've heard that one.
It's not up to the creditors how much your credit score goes up.
