Pay For Delete: The Strategy That Turns Debt Into a Clean Report

from The Credit Show

You've got a collection account, you've got the money to pay it, and your instinct is to just get it done. Stop. Paying a collection without a strategy is one of the most expensive credit mistakes consumers make — because a paid collection still sits on your report for seven years as a derogatory mark. Harry Jacobs walks through the pay-for-delete strategy from start to finish: what it is, why collection agencies have more room to negotiate than you think, how to write the letter, what to do if they say no, and a pre-payment move that sometimes gets the account removed for free before you spend a dollar. If you have any collection accounts on your report, this is the episode to listen to before you do anything else.If you would like a free consultation with Harry Jacobs at Credit Restoration of Nevada, text CREDIT or call 702-778-2000.
