about to call capital one

I have a CO showing balance of ~1800 dollars.  DOFD was 6.5 years ago.  Im not within SOL .  I want to try to negotiate this down to about 500 dollars.  I hear the lowest they will go is ~50% of the balance.  However , I think calling them gives a better chance of futher negotiatons.  I just want to make sure if we dont come to an agreement, i dont restart the SOL, so what should I not say to them?

 

Im going to offer the money for a delete of the TL.  (im not optimistic on this one) .  If this fails , what are the best terms for settling with it still showing on my report?

Re: about to call capital one

No matter what you do it will still be scored the same by FICO.  Settled for less than full amount will not look good on a manual review.

Re: about to call capital one

is it possible for them to remove the charge-off status?  That would help , wouldn't it??
