Paid Collection

[Anonymous]

I just found a medical debt that I had paid on my credit report. The balance was paid in full 3 years ago and my report says that it's paid. Is it possible for me to have it removed? I have heard of goodwill letters. Would it benefit me to do so? And who would I send the letter to? The collection agency or the original creditor?

Payment for removal is usually negotiated at the time of the payment, is it too late? Probably, but a good will letter never hurt, sometimes you get lucky catching someone in a good mood on the other end. Who to send the letter to? Whomever reported it to the CRAs, probably the collection agency but you should double check your report.

Is it okay to email goodwill letters? And I found the president of the collection agency on the website of the capital accounts (collection agency). Is it worth sending to the president?
