I received a call from NCB and spoke to a Miss Thomas. After nearly 20 minutes discussing a valid debt, I offered to make monthly restitutions in the amount of $100.00. I was initially offered a settlement of 50% of the total debt, which I'm in no position to do. I was told after my offer of $100.00 dollars per month that in order for them to accept that, I would have to make a down payment of 30% of the total debt. When I refused that, I wasn't given a counter offer by the collector.
