PFD/GW Accepted!!!

I sent a GW letter to the CEO of the OC asking for the baddie to be removed if I paid. He fwd my info to his account mgr yesterday. She called me today, was very nice and agreed to remove. I paid and she is sending the request to the CA to return the account back to them which will remove it from the bureaus. She also said she will send a letter to me requesting the removal for my records. In addition to that she discounted the debt by 25% and is still considering it paid in full and will be removed from my credit.

I am elated! That was the last of the derog debt I owe, plus it was the most recent (9 months old). With the exception of my car, I am 100% debt free! I am praying for a nice score increase once it's removed.

My scores now are 584, 594, and 617. Maybe this will push all scores well into the 600s

Thanks! The CA was Paragon Revenue Group. This is a medical collection, so the OC was a hospital.
