Verizon Goodwill

[bonddiva07]

I was wondering is anyone had a good contact for Verizon to get a paid collection removed from my report.  I tried numerous PFD to the address listed on my report and also asked over the phone (I know the phone is not my friend but I was trying everything).  I already paid the collection and I want to try to goodwill it off my report.  Any help would be appreciated.

I haven't read of anyone recent having GW luck w/ Verizon. Maybe try doing a search of Verizon & see if there are older instances.

Either way, I continually read that time & persistence are the keys to GW deletes. Just keep sending once a month or so... you never know when someone new might pick up the letter.

i recently got an over the phone delete from them. it was a valid CO from their perspective, but bogus from mine.

i think the clincher was the length of my contact with them. i was a paid up customer for 7 years, and then i switched my phone to corporate account. how long were you with them?

Dealing with Columbus OH is pintless - deal with your local office (send it there).

I tried to GW Verizon Wireless numerous times with no luck.  I even called and talked people and it didn't help.  I've been a customer for over 6 years and it was over an $80 late payment that was on my sister's phone.  They said they couldn't delete accurate information from the credit reports but I saw something on here before about writing a "letter of circumstance" stating why you couldn't pay/didn't pay and not mention anything about money that's been paid, but that you would just like it deleted from your reports.  I'm actually going to be working on it later today.  And I'm going to send it every few weeks if I don't get an "ok."  From reading the messages here, persistence may pay off, so I'm going to keep trying.  Good luck.  They are a tough bunch!
