Settling Debt for 18.8%
Date: Mon, 07/12/2010 - 17:52
For one full year I have been pretty delinquent on a citi card and the monarch recovery company contacted me and agreed to let me pay $4410 for $23400 owed so 18.8%
What will help my credit report the most? Paid As Agreed, Paid to Delete?
My credit score was at 740 (I'm 23 now) but has plummeted to a disgusting 577.
Please help me work out a list of demands before I send the first payment because I am going to get it all in writing of course.
Thanks a lot,
Matt

Wow! That's the position that I am in. I want to settle my debts to rebuild credit and have two charge offs. How do I go about the pay for delete? Do I go through the creditors? What steps did you take to be so successful?
Thanks!
I am aware sometimes pay for delete works...but it is fraudulent
I am aware sometimes pay for delete works...but it is fraudulent on the part of the creditor so I'm not sure how they get away with it.
