Repairing Credit

Is it possible to have a creditor take something off of your Credit Report after you pay it? I have things that I want to pay and have them agree to take it off permenatly and I plan to have it all in writing also.

 

Does Portfolio Recovery usually agree to lower outstanding balance?

They purchased an account that I owe and sent me a letter asking of course for payment. Does anyone know if they have a reputation of working with you to lower the amount owed? I am currently paying off my Discover card at 40% and can't afford anything else until it is done in December.

 

Best Course of Action???

17 years 7 months ago
I live in Massachusetts. I have 9 payday loans. 5 of those I know I have paid off the principle, if not more in monthly payments. I am just about to sign up for Oakview Law. They probably wont be able to stop any withdrawals before Sept. 30th. I assume. Is there anything I can do to stop some of these ACH withdrawals without closing my Bank Account. I know if all 9 make there withdrawals I will not be able to pay my rent. Thanks

Loan Shop Online

I had a $200 loan that I defaulted on, they already had taken $60 out of my account previously. I contacted them and explained the laws and how illegal they are to lend in my state. The guy placed me on hold to talk to his manager and he gets back on the line and says "ok, we'll settle for $140 and close the account". Beautiful!!!!! So, if you call any of these pdl's that you may owe and explain the laws and the fact that they have to abide by them, they WILL COMPLY.

Hello Everyone. I'm looking for advice or possible similar circumstances somebody else might have dealt with and what the resolution and approach was. In a nut shell, I have an Auto Lease through Wells Fargo for an extravagant car which I can't make payments on anymore. My previous employer, which was a family business, majority owned and operated by my Aunt, which I thought did very well financially filed CH11 in Aug-07 and was dissolved in Feb-08.
