GW Sallie Mae

[PixieQueen80]

Has anyone have any luck with GW and Sallie Mae.  I have (1) 90 day late, (3) 60 day lates and (3) 30 day lates for a paid Sallie Mae account from November 2009 to September 2010.  I know my scores would improve significantly because 4 of the lates are within the last 12 months and was wondering if anyone has had any luck with getting Sallie Mae to honor a GW.

Hey. Last month I called Sallie Mae and told them that I had two accounts on my credit reports and that they were supposed to be taken off. I had late payments, deferred payments, all the bad stuff. Anyways, the guy I talked to was very nice and told me that I needed to send a letter to them saying that the accounts were over 7 years and I would like them to remove said items. I never got a letter back, BUT I did look at my transunion report and they took off all of the late payments and changed the reporting as never late, closed. So I would call them and ask them. Just be nice and courteous and they may help you out.

Railroader - I contacted them today and a lady told me to also send a letter and my credit report over.  I just faxed them so hopefully I will see a change in about 30 days because I should see a huge score increase from this if they comply because in all this one account has 8 nagatives since November of 2009.
