Portfolio Recovery Bailout

[Anonymous]

I received a letter from Portfolio Recovery Associates (bottom feeders) offering 70% off of my $5,796.68 or $1,739. They will accept it by 4/08/2009 so my wife and I are thinking of getting these people out of our life.  I'm going to offer a little more cash for a PFD. Anyone had success with a pfd with these scum sucking bottom feeders? thx

Have experience with Portfolio Recovery AFFIL (not sure if it's same company).  My debt was past SOL, so DV'd and PFD taking the settlement amount.  Be sure to get it all in writing, and pay with a money order or cashier's check with restrictive endorsement.  After doing all of that, they removed from my CRs

I HATE Portfolio Recovery & Associates!  I have been sending them letters for over a year now and all they do is call.  I received the same notice about a "tax deal".  I did not go for it because they will probably sell the remainder to another CA.  Plus they said that they will report it settled, so it will do me no good (I think).  I have sent several letters for them to stop calling me and only write, but I get a phone call every day.  I just sent letters to the CEO and a bunch of the directors on their board, so hopefully one of them will agree to a PFD.  Here are the names just incase you would like to send your letters to them.   edited to remove others' names   Hope this helps

OP, I edited the names you mentioned but feel free to PM any info at any time.
