Goodwill Letter Question(s)

Greetings.  I've taken heart in a lot of the stories that the posters have relayed via the forums here.  Specifically, the Goodwill Letters that have been written to success.  I have a question along those lines:

 

I have four collections that are all paid, and have a status "Paid, was a Collection" on my report.  These were one-off totals (moved before lease was up, didn't give 30-day notice to daycare, left Brighthouse Networks early, etc.), and so I can't necessarily write a GW asking for 30/60/90-day consideration.  

 

Is this a situation that a GW letter can even help?  Should I write one asking for the accounts to be removed?  Since it wasn't a "credit line," I can't see any benefit to having them on my credit report even though they're paid.   

 

Thoughts?  And thanks.
