PFD email?

[mamabear]

In an earlier post I said that I had asked a CA for a PFD over the phone.  She said she had to check with OC.  She came back and said they would delete.  She sent me an email stating  "this will confirm that the account for ****** will be completely removed from the credit bureau upon receipt of this payment in the amount of ******."  Is this good enough?  Do they have to do it if I pay?

IMHO - I would ask for a hard copy.

it is good enough.
Email is standard protocol in legal discovery.

I would still get a copy on company letterhead.

If it ain't in writing then it don't exist. Should be on letterhead and preferably signed.

It is good enough and I have had no problem with email confirmations....

Also,  understand that should they fail to delete, you can take them to small claims.  The judges are more lenient there AND it is based on a preponderance of the evidence in addition to using the "least sophisticated consumer" standard.  The email would fly.

It's not hard to spoof e-mail. I wouldn't chance it in court. You want something signed on company letterhead.
