Debt Validation Letter Success for Banfield Pet Hospital

DV letters work!! This is my first, but will not be my last.  I emailed Banfield from the email address on their website (google it).

 

Here is their response:

 

Thank you for emailing Banfield Pet Hospital.  After reviewing your account, we have determined that the amount that you have already paid into the plan is sufficient for the services rendered.  Therefore, as a client service gesture, we are withdrawing the item from collections and the credit bureaus.   A letter to that effect is attached as well as a copy of your signed Agreement for your reference.  Please let us know if you have any further questions or concerns. 

 

 

WOOHOO I am on Cloud 9 right now!!

Re: Debt Validation Letter Success for Banfield Pet Hospital

Been going round and round with IC Systems for a Banfield debt.

Sent DV.  Validated.

Offered to pay % of it.  Denied.

Tried again denied.

Tried to contact the OC via email, they responded within 24hrs, denying my %, no counter offer, just full amlount but with a payment option.

So, should I set up a payment option with the orginal OC even though ICSystems is reporting the collection on my EQ and follow up with a GW?

Or should I just wait it out til I have the funds to pay in full and then GW for deletion?

Re: Debt Validation Letter Success for Banfield Pet Hospital

 Thank you for contacting Banfield Pet Hospital regarding the Wellness Plan for your pet.  Unfortunately, based on the services used out of the Wellness Plan package, we cannot accept a settlement of only $XXX.00.  The $319.50 is the remaining balance due to pay off the Puppy Early Care Plus plan, enrolled on 11/12/09.  You are welcome to make partial payments toward that balance, but the debt is valid, so we will be unable to withdraw it from your credit report.  We have attached a copy of the Wellness Plan agreement to this email. You can contact our Client Financial Services team if you would like to discuss the account with a representative. 

 


So MyFico'ers - what's my next move?  Should I pay the OC directly and GW?  Attempt to PTD again with the CA (IC Systems)?

Bump up the payment, maybe even a full payment.  That might work.  Ask if you if you were to pay in full if they would delete it.

What % did you offer to pay? Maybe increase the offer, or do a PFD once you get the funds. Keep trying!

Going to pay in full.  Just debating paying the OC directly the full amount and GW since there will be no amount due to IC Systems maybe it will delete?
