In addition is it okay to do a settlement or should I be paying in full? In my experience this is a ymmv question. How old are the collection accounts that you have? If the CA will not do a pay for delete, and it's out of sol, you can pay as paid looks better than not. I'm sort of vindictive though and if the time is almost to 7 years where the debt can be considered for early exclusion or will about to be removed from my report, I'm not giving them a dime. If they've helped keep my credit down for years they can also take getting no money from while I focus on my relationships with my current creditors. YMMV though. If I was looking for a mortgage asap I'd pay as paid looks better than not. Right now I know it's going to be until 2022 until I'm ready to do anything in that regard so mine are staying on there as is. Two of my baddies are paid and it's still hurting my score so I wish I would've taken the settlement money I gave them and used it elsewhere.

You never need multiple installment loans but after taking care of your debts another card would help maximize your score.
