How long should I wait between GW letters????

I sent a GW letter to Dillards (Dept Store) on 09/29. I had 1 30day late in 2005 and that is the only baddie on that account ever (Currently at a $0 Balance)

 

It is showing on my Experian Report as a customer disputed account as of 10/03 so I know they have the letter.

 

 

Is it too soon to send another GW letter?

IMO, wait 30-60 days between GW letters.

 

They have other issues to deal with, issues that likely take priority over GW letters, so the GW letters get sent to the back burner to deal with later.

Indeed! That sounds fair... I get a little over anxious when it comes to this kind of thing.

 

All I needed was to hear what I already knew. Thank you!

Then there are some OCs in which GWing every 15-20-25 days is a must (my dang CapOne)!

I was only going to wait a month, but I lost track of time, so it ended up being somewhere around 6 weeks after the 1st letter, that I sent out the 2nd.  We'll see what happens.  Smiley Happy

My CapOne?  Every 14 minutes.  Smiley Very Happy

 

Everything else?  I try twice a week but usually get around to it once a week.

 

I guess I'm still hanging on the strand of hope that one of these times a more forgiving person will open the envelope and show sweet mercy.
