Nfcu c/o credit cards

Ok I had a checking account that was closed . Just paid that I have 2 c/o credit cards with them ones 1600 n 4200 they both have been sent to collections is there a way to reopen checking n see if they will recall the debt n start letting me make payments. I could pay the 1600 off but it will put me n a bond. Would just like to make payments til there paid off any suggestions

Re: Nfcu c/o credit cards

You should be able to possibly reopen the checking account after some time has passed and it's been updated in their system that you paid it off. As for the two charged off cards, they're not likely to be recalled. That's usually only for utility, medical, or cell phone service collection. Credit Cards don't get recalled. I'm afraid you'd have to negotiate with the CAs for a payment plan to pay those off. Which CAs have the collections?

Re: Nfcu c/o credit cards

I had an NFCU credit card go to collections too. It took a little under a year and a half before it went to collections. And they sent me about a letter a month to settle before then. They finally sent it to Conserve who honored the settlement offer from NFCU and Conserve said it won't be added to my credit reports. Ultimately, the settlement was for about 30% of the balance owed.

 

I doubt NFCU will reopen your account if you have unpaid accounts with them, but I could be wrong. If you had started payments before it went to collections, you could have paid from a different bank account though.

Sorry to hear that.

 

Call NFCU and they can tell you who they assigned it to. You can pay it in full or make payments in full. Seems to me NFCU just uses the collection agency to receive payments/collect. The agency I'm dealing with said it wouldn't be reported, they were just collecting.
