Has anyone had any success or any tips for negotiating a deletion for full payment with Providian? Tom
Bill.... It's a pleasure corresponding with you. The amount is $977.00. It's now being serviced by Southwest Credit Systems. The collection action was put on my report by Providian and they WILL NOT exchanage deletion for full payment. The collection agency will settle for about $600 and said Providian will mark the account paid in full. That's not what I am shooting for though. I'm not sure how to get them to delete it. I do sense one error on their part - they have my last name as Mitippl, not Mitchell. Can I hammer them on this in a dispute? Tom
