GW this....support group!

Jesedmotherof5 — Tue, 13 May 2008 14:24:12 GMT

I think Im going to set one day a week where I type up GW letters and send them out weekly... is that too much! Do you think they will be sick and tired of hearing from me after 52 letters? It will be easy enough to print them up... I could even do lables for the envelopes. .... ummm who wants to join me? It could be a GW support group. he he he

We need a name for this group......How do these sound?

Goodwill Hunting - a nice play off the movie. We could cast Matt Damon as our spokesperson.

Organization for Goodwill Policy (OGP) - Public lobbying firm; have contacts here in DC and Congress.

Society for GW Reform (SGWR)

Get 'Er Done GW Optimist Club (GEDGWOC)

The County Lockup GW Club - For those of us who violated restaining orders for GWing too much.

Or how about the IOASOGWWNTNFAAAWBDUOCIF.............the International Organization and Society of GWrs Who Never Take "No" For An Answer and Won't Be Denied Until Our Credit Is Fixed. Almost catchy, but not quite.

I work on repairing my credit at least one day a week. So, count me in!

I have a success. ON 5/2 I sent a GW letter to OC, stating it wasn't my account, opened under false pretense, I want proof of signature of who opened the account in my name.

On, 5/10 - I received a letter in return, stating that they found that the account was not mine, and they would have it removed from cr. THIS is huge! This account had a balance, and late payments. I tried disputing with bureaus. etc, etc. NOW relief!

If you send letters once a week, odds are someone will remove it, or want you to stop mailing it and remove it.

Type up the letters once, save them on your PC. If you want to save time, print out say 5 at a time, place them in an envelope. Each week, stamp and mail it out. I would send one every 2 weeks though, since I think that is how long it takes to get approved/rejected?

I have a question. I am wondering if i send a GW to a company, that is closed, paid in full does that update the amount of time that it will remain on my credit report.

For example. I have Macy's I had one 30 day late payment in Aug 2007. It is listed as an adverse (negative) account. If i send a GW to have it removed will they update it and say account is scheduled to go positive in Nov 2014.

If you GW in that example, and Macys accepts, then the account will continue to stay on your CR for 10 years from the date it was closed, assuming nothing bad happens to it in the future.

I hear that Macys is good with GWs.

I'm with you. Capitol One is the only ones that won't GW. I've tried disputing and calling with no luck. I sent a GW letter a month ago with no response. The bad thing is that my two accounts that were paid charge offs are due to fall off in Sept. and Dec. of 09. You would think they would just let it go early....but nooooo. They don't forgive or forget. I want to send three letters a day to them so count me in as a club member.
