When I spoke to both the hospital AND the collector, they refused- the hospital billing dept. supervisor even said that it was not even possible to remove it once it is on your credit (insert eye roll here). I told the woman that was not true, and that I had NO incentive to pay this bill without removal. That ticked her off, but I did not care. I wrote that letter 4/1- and today the office called, accepted the payment, and put in the request for removal. This is the LAST baddie on my husbands report- which means, for the first time in a LONG time, his report is finally completely CLEAN!!! This is an unbelieveable victory, words cannot express how thankful I am to everyone on this forum for their help, insight, posts, PM's... just, thank you.
congrats!!!!! WTG!!

No I did not send payment with the letter, just sent a heartfelt letter with request to contact me to make payment. I have done this several times and it has always worked
Would you mind pm me the letter you sent. I am getting no where fast with PFD on a $130 medical CA on my report. I would really appreciate it, I have sent numerous GW's so far with no response....I have even tried emailing but the local office doesn't seem to care and the "main" office is in India
