They offered to delete,  now had they agreed to the amount you offered, they would have gotten some money.   I do agree with RobertEG though in getting rid of the debt if possible.  The bottom feeders that come out later during Zombie debt are a less conforming to rules and regulations.  I'd write back and just ask how much exactly would it take to end this now.  Just a suggestion.  Good Luck.
