I have an outstanding balance with CapOne credit card for $1750
This is a very old account and was closed back in 2005, 2 of the 3 bureaus show the account can be deleted on the first quarter of 2012 which is awesome but I need my credit points before that for sure.
So Im fixing to send CapOne a PFD letter but was wondering if it would be wise to shoot low on the settlement amount, I don't know maybe $700 or so..
Has anyone here had a similar situation with CapOne, did they go for it?
Capital One is another difficult company to PFD or GW. By the time you would be able to get them to agree to a PFD, the 7 year mark will pass and they will be deleted from your credit report. Also, 99.9% of the time they won't "settle" for a PFD. PFD usually requires you to pay the debt in full, including any collection fees.
