Has anyone had any success with getting a charge off from Plains Commerce bank removed from credit report? If so, could you please let me know exactly what steps were successful for you. I can't seem to find any success stories about Plains Commerce removing CO's. Thank you in advance.

Do I DV first to see if Plains Commerce still holds debt; or if they sold to a credit agency? ( no credit agency reporting on my report)
Do I contact Plains Commerce and offer to PIF?
Do I contact Plains Commerce and pay in full; then do GW letter in hopes they will then remove from report?
Do I contact Plains Commerce and request PFD? Per the posts on this forum they do not seem to respond to PFD.
I am willing to pay this debt in full. I would like to know the best way to go about paying in full AND getting it removed from my report.

I'm not going to let the cat out of the bag yet...
What I'll advise you to do involves the determination of them owning it still, or if it was sold to another banking entity in '09 (there's a specific reason for this).
Just call them, and ask if account #******* is still owned, hang up, then report back here.
I'll follow through once you know.
Should i call them from my personal phone?......don't want them calling me back.
Also, I only have the partial acct number that is on credit report. Would I have to give them more info for them to find out if they still hold acct?
They are a creditor.
The DV process does not apply to creditors, it only applies to debt collectors.
The debt is apparently legit, and the goal is to get their credit reporting deleted.
Thus, I would first offer them a pay for delete. If they no longer own the debt, they cannot accept payment, and will so inform.
If they accept a PFD, then you have met your objective.
If they do not accept a PFD, then you can pay and still pursue GW requests.
What was the DOFD on this card, OP?

Do you mean my private messaging or community mail? Sorry not very tech savvy
I recently gw'd them in January in regards to a charge off from 2009. They have sent me a letter February 1st stating they sent a request for removal from my credit reports - but as of right now, they are still on my timelines, smh. Then I called and they stated that they did send a request last month and for me to just wait... so I'm not sure what to do next......Anyway In my opinion I would write them and request a gw until you get a response.
