Hi,

I was looking at my credit report yesterday after reading a lot of posts and articles on this site. (Great information by the way, now I'm moving forward in doing things I didn't even know I could do.)

Anyway, I have a debt that has been in the hands of a collection agency for months. However, the collection agency themselves do not have an entry on my credit report as far as I can tell. The only thing on there related to this debt is a "Charge-off" from CapitalOne.

My question is, am I able to convince CapitalOne to retrieve this debt back so that I may do a settlement and pay for delete? Or, once it's off to the collection agency is that all there is to it? I have two accounts like this where they have been turned over to collection agencies, but neither of the agencies have entries on my report.

Thanks in advance!
