i had a recent ca from directv and t-mobile. anyways, i sent pfd letters to both a month ago, and haven't heard anything yet. i also emailed them as well. i also recently dv the ca this week and disputed the cra's. i also sent letters via planetfeedback to both, and haven't heard anything yet. anyways, i got inpatient, and decided to call, to see if they would accept payments, both accepted payments, and gave me confirmation #'s. they also said that they would withdraw from collections. i requested a letter stating this, and was told, the only thing they could produce was my final bill, which would show a $0 balance. has anyone had any experience with this? when searching the forum, i saw that some had advised going this approach, and dv the ca. and since the account was already paid, the ca can't validate, and would have to remove the ca. what are your thoughts about this approach? can the ca simply update the cr to a "paid" status? do you think these will be removed from the reports? thanks for any assistance.
