Seeking help in becoming debt free!

17 years ago
Hi Everyone, I have one credit card account thru Bank of America. I beleive the account is closed. The balance is roughly $7,600 on a 7000 credit limit. I have been paying $350 a month for at least a year but seem to be getting nowhere and want a change. Looking at the statements interest rate is 28% and they charge late fees of $39 every month. $350 a month is getting a little out of my range with the toughened times and I missed last months payment. What would you recommend to do? Should I try and get the amount reduced? Or try and just get the interest reduced and late fees removed?

collector send bills for canceled debt

If a credit card reports that they closed your account and canceled the debt, on credit reports, how can LVNV try to collect the debt? It's canceled. That means not owed. LVNV reports the debt like I owe them and and of course its a higher amount than the credit card canceled.

Close to setting 17K debt

17 years ago
This is a double post, I did not intend to post in the other discussion thread. Currently working on settling 17K of unsecured debt for 40% of what is owed. I signed up here to post a settlement letter I received and wanted to know of there is anything missing. I told the company I wanted to have the negative comments removed from my credit report. Does this letter indicate this will be the case? I also have not received from this company a letter validating they own the account. I did however call USAA and USAA gave me this phone number of the company that sent me this letter.
