    For future reference, don't pay unless there is an agreement for deletion between you and your creditor. Don't even bother with the CRA; they won't do anything about it. Go to the creditor! Write some sort of letter like I did after paying my charge-off to AMEX. I said that I had fulfilled my financial obligation with them and that I had now become responsible and shouldn't it reflect that on my report? I also added that I paid it off which is more than most people do and that they didn't have to take a loss. Just kiss ass and sweeten your letter up and you should have no problem...that is, if they're a reasonable creditor. Good luck!

    Here is how the credit system system works on this .If you pay it you get the shaft. The guy who don't pay it gets a reward!
