GW Late Removal Advice Needed -Self Lender

Anonymous · ‎02-22-2018

So, I screwed up and paid Self Lender late one time for me and one time for my husband. I had left my job and we were waiting on his job to start paying him. No matter why it happened, it did, and now our scores have dropped 75 points each.

My husband sent a GW letter to SL, no response, no removal. We e-mailed the CEO, got no response. I called, they said they don't do that. This is the only late payment on either of our reports, so I really want them gone.

Any suggestions, experience, advice? I know this was stupid - I used a credit building technique and screwed it up. Just please, help?

*thank you, awesome myFICO gods*

The CEO of Self Lender visits the forum from time to time. He might see your post and respond or you could message him on here.

Here's a link to a post he's active on.

Just an update: I messaged the CEO, but he didn't respond.

(Mod Edit on your comment as it was approaching flaming which violates our TOS and it isnt FSR, thanks for your understanding)

Wow! Did you try messaging him on a public post?

No, it was a private post. I didn't want to hijack another's post.

A lot of times requests for GW deletion do not work on a first try. Don't give up just because somebody did not respond to a single message, especially if this is your only negative. Keep trying, you have nothing to lose.
