I dont even know if it is possible, but here is what I am looking at. 4 months ago I had a car repo. Now the company that financed it is calling me. They said I still owe 8000 on it. The first thing they said is that they can cut that in half and only pay 4000. Now is there any letter that I can write to try to work things out with them. I dont have 4000 now but can pay it off. I only want to do this if they can take it off my credit. Can I say that I will pay a certain amount for 12 months or so if they promise to take it off my credit when I pay the 4000 in full. What kind of letter should I write.
I think I have something in my trusty file folder. Email me and we'll see what excellent letter we can come up with.
try looking at the free site www.budhibbs.com it has copies of letters like you're requesting... no charge...
