You can view what others have offered, but as far as a form template goes, there is none.
A GW letter is, by its nature, very personal, and very specific to your situation.
You want to open any good-will letter by identifying it as a request for their deletion of prior reporting to your CR. From that point on, it is specific to your situation.
I only offer some advice, from my perspective.
Know from the moment they identify it as a GW letter, their first inclination will probably be to just chuck it in the trash, and move on to more pressing business.
So, knowing they are capitalists, I would offer, as quickly as possible, their benefit in granting you the GW.
That is much easier to do when you are GW'ing an OC, for you can point to your years of good account standing with them, and the desire to continue such business relationship. Much harder to do with a debt collector/CA. Their whole business is built upon the monetary benefits to them of your prior misery.
Find some hook that would appeal to deletion by a CA. I dont know of a good one.
The other problem you are facing in a GW is that teh credit reporting gudelines published by the CRAs, and agreed to by all who report to them, specifically instructs that prior reporting should NOT be deleted on the basis of subsequent payment of a debt.
I know this all sounds negative, but I offer these observations only to emphasize the GW deletions, particuarly with a CA, are not easy to obtain.
But it costs you nothing to try. So, good luck with your GWs!
