Hey...
I'm new to myfico and I'm trying to rebuild my credit... I noticed no recent posts when it comes to sending out goodwill letters, is this still a practice people use to help rebuild scores or is this a practice that no longer exsist?
I have a few late pays I would like to clear up to help boost up my score
Thanks!
Requests for good-will deletions are not a thing of the past.
The problem is that the CRAs oppose deletions of reporting information based on the consumer having paid the debt.
They incorporate that policy into their credit reporting agreements, and thus credtiors or debt collectors who grant good-will deletions based on the consumer having paid the debt could face termination of their ability to report to CRAs if they are known to violate that agreement.
Make the request and hope for the best.

Here is a helpful thread on goodwill letter technique. It seems that some people run into brick walls and some people are successful. There is no harm in trying. Good luck!
thanks for the link! def going to try out
I have two GW success stories with resolutions in the past week. Def follow the link to the saturation method.
GW letters are certainly not a thing of the past. I've successfully removed all of the negative information on 3 out of 4 of my "bad" accounts using GW letters and The Saturation Technique. Going for the clean sweep via GW letters and hoping I can take care of that fourth, final account that's haunting my credit reports
