Anonymous Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 Ok KristyI've got some responses from some of my debt valadtion letters. So what i've decided to do is to write them to see if they will accept a settlement and remove the entires from my report as 2 of the entires still have 5 years to stay on my report. These are all collection accounts none of them are being report by the orginal creditor. I have one that is do to fallof next year july 2003 so i'm not gonna worry about that . I'm just worreid about the other ones that are supoose to stay on for another 5 years... I cannot seem to find a letter from the cd that i have from you...

admin Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 Lisa which letter are you looking for?You can only tell if the debt is assigned or purchased by asking for this information. I'd start with the BBB in your state and ask them who is responsible for licensing collection agencies, then give them a call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
