Get the debt validated to make sure it's legit, and if it is, get the collection agency to agree to completely remove the item from your credit report if you pay the balance owed.
It will help your credit score.
Good luck!

Most people having issues with AT&T and Palisades Collections have one thing in common. The debts have occurred long time back and they go out of the SOL period. You must also make sure if the last payment done towards this account was long time back if it has forced the expiry of SOL.
If this debt is legitimate, Palisades has to give you the necessary details in writing before you make any payment arrangements with them. Don't make any commitment or a payment at this stage otherwise they will hold it against you and that will renew the SOL
