E. Normis Debtor Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Unless you have phonophobia, call them. When negotiating, more communication is better than less. You should record the call, and be sure you get any settlement offer in writing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yari1979 Posted October 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 I called the CA agent back he was not available so the rep that answers reads his notes and offers a settement much higher than what i offered, i told them i could not pay that amount and she said well then we are not going to make any more offers and collections will continue for the full amount, she then hung up on me.. did i make a mistake by talking to this person, should i try contactin the rep who made the offer , or just try again later?

E. Normis Debtor Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 They'll make more offers. Ask to talk to a manager next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raysway Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 I agree with Normie. You probably spoke to some pissed-off rep that was miffed about having to work on a holiday. The managers should be in tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarolinaBlueEyes Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Also PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU GET IT IN WRITING BEFORE YOU PONY UP A DIME.. also when and If you do send a check I would open another bank account for this or CA payment only.. I have seen check by phone more then once get debited twice or have the wrong amountsso get it IN WRITING because if you dont.. it never happened and make sure you do NOT do check by phone but send it from another account...
