GW emails

bigboihill — Thu, 03 May 2012 23:03:00 GMT

Hi everyone,

I have been following this forum for a while but this is my first time posting. I have gained some very useful information which has allowed me to increase my credit score 100 points within a 1 year time frame!!! I am now in the process of sending some GW letters to accounts that have been PIF. Would anyone of the great contributors here be so kind as to PM me good email adresses for any of the following:

Wells Fargo Dealer Services

Capital One Credit Card

Juniper Credit Card

Macy's

The Home Depont (Thd/Cbna)

One Main Financial (formerly Citifinancial)

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

The internet is certainly quick and easy, but hardly personal. I dont even read emails when I dont know their source, and they can be sent by anyone.

GWs are a personal plea. I would not even use email for such requests, as they dont show the personal attention of a phone call or even a signed letter.

Your choice, but email would not be my preferred method of obtaining personal attention......

Thanks for your advice! I know that emails are not that personal, but I was definitely going to compose and format the email just as I would a letter. However, if someone has good snail mail addresses that I could use for the listed creditors, I would be most grateful as well!! Thanks!!

I would disagree with Robert, all my GW deletes have been via email, including a CO. In regards to your Macy's GW, I sent my email on their online inquiry form. Times have changed, email would be my first choice.

Biggest issue with GWs by phone is you usually talk to someone at a company on the lower level of the totem pole who can't help. I've read here about people mailing GW letters with personalized stationary with pictures of their family, etc.

I would like the capital one address that you are using too. I have an old credit card with them that is really hurting me right now. Thanks!

I have gotten deletes from Macy's and Verizon over the phone. I guess everyone is different but for me the whole purpose is to express the nature of the circumstances to a person who may understand. This is hard to do via email or snail mail when you aren't engaging the person and can't read their reaction to what you're saying. On the phone, you can hear in their voice when they're going into robot/script mode, or "it's not possible to change what has already been reported" mode. I quickly thank them for their time and call back later, again and again if I have to, until I hear the voice of someone who wants to be there and is willing/able to help. I once tried 3 times in one day and the 3rd time was the charm. Would have taken weeks with a letter and then I'd have had to wait for their response. If you are at all a people person I would say go the instant gratification route and appeal for help via the phone.
