Hello ya'll. Trying to clean up my mom's report so she can get a new car!
She has two payday advances on her report...each for $315.
I just "settled" one of them for $200. They said that they are going to update the credit bureau as "paid" and "not in collections."
But they said if I pay the whole $315---they will take the whole thing off my credit report.
I'm assuming the latter is true---but is it even possible??? Help!! PS, can I negotioate with these people?? Them seem nice!
Yes, it is possible. I've gotten 3 chargeoffs removed from my CR. But in my experience it's always good to get this agreement written and stamped by the company before proceeding. Sometimes just their word isn't good enough.
Good luck!
