CO settlement - Citi - Santandar

I am trying to get some of the COs cleared. Does any one have any experience in dealing CO with Citi, Santandar, BlissPay ?

My Citi accounts were both dealt with Credit Control anything in particular you're looking for?

I had a Citi account COd and sold to PRA, so naturally once I settled with PRA, it came off my reports. Citi deleted their original TL.

Re: CO settlement - Citi - Santandar

As you know getting a CO removed is next to impossible. You know how by GW letters. Omar is the only 1 I've heard of a Citi CO removal.

I had a charge-off with Citi that was kept in house. I made a settlement offer right after it was charged off, they accepted and then sent the agreement to me in writing. They told me I could pay it off in installments but I chose one lump sum.

Just to clarify, I did not request or make any sort of deal with Citi. They deleted their TL on their own upon selling the debt to PRA. I never had any contact with them; I never even saw the original CO'd TL on my reports. By the time I started working on my credit, their TL was long gone.

I guess lenders are removing their accounts from credit report once they sold them to outside party. However Citi/BestBuy did not remove it from my report even after they sold to PRA. I guess it depends on lender and the account and company they sold to.

Yea I'm not sure how they decide when to/not to remove their own OC reporting. I'm just glad they removed it. It's one less CO'd TL.
