hi ive been lurking on these boards for a while now thought i ask some questions. To start off i have $67000 in student loans and $1300 in total in collections. so i have a lot of baddies on my cr mostly from student loans being sold and moving to different companies. and the collections is 4 different items with no more than 2 years on them. how do i go about paying my collections and getting it delete from my cr and is there any thing i can do about the badies from student loans
thanks
Write to the collections accounts and request pay for deletions. This seems to be a mixed bag of outcomes, but it is worth a shot. The student loans, your best bet is to begin paying them on time, and then after a year, write a good will letter to discuss removing any negative information now that you are a model client. Starting a credit line and managing it successfully is a great start as well. Ultimately what you need are revolving accounts wisely used and history, but there are a few ways to speed up the time needed for the history.
If you are behind or defaulted on your student loans look into doing a rehab program on them - that usually gets all of the negative stuff removed.
