GW letters; how often?...

Hi all. I sent out a GW to a credit union i belong to, to see if they will remove late payments for an auto loan i fell behind on and eventually paid off early. Question is, how often should i be sending out GW letters? I sent out one to thier head office about a month ago, heard nothing, and saw nothing (on my reports). I just sent out three today to three different address I found for them, one included the CEO. Should I just wait to see what happens on next months report or send them out once a week? I know I should be persistant, but i don't want to over do it...or do I? Thanks for the advice!

I'd send at least 1 per week. Different addresses to different people with different content in my letters. 

Good luck!!

Plus, start searching for officers of the company, someone up the ladder than can help you.

Thanks guys! I sent out three the other day as i said to three different addresses including the CEO. I also got a response from one of my e-mails that advised me to fax in my request, so i did. Lets see what happens!
