    Before you negotiate debt on your credit report, you might want to try disputing it if there is an error or the debt shouldn't be on your report. Check out this video for a template credit report dispute letter you can use. th-cam.com/video/AGUZ5paqvCQ/w-d-xo.html

      Cheers for this, been searching for "stop harassing phone calls from debt collectors" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Donadelyn Stupefying Dominance - (should be on google have a look ) ? It is a smashing one off guide for discovering how to repair your credit without the normal expense. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my co-worker got excellent results with it.

    Situation: 1. 40% settlement offer of Wells Fargo Credit Card debt. 2. The debt is 2 years old and not yet sold.
    Proposed solution: 1. get the best discount possible and pay. (3,123.90 is the 40% settlement number. 2. Get Wells Fargo to agree not to update the status in the reporting. (avoid paying and re-setting the activity of the account. 3. The item falls off in 2 more years.
    WILL THIS WORK? DO YOU HAVE ANOTHER PLAN? OR RECOMMENDATION? Thank you, might make a good video to discuss.

I have considered paying it off but the interest is more than double the amount. I don’t know what to do,I want to buy a home but Equifax leaves me a score of 480 and TransUnion a score of 510. I explain this to one of the agent who understand FICO a lot and he confided to me that if I really want to remove every negative item on my credit report that I should contact this credit repair company who specialize on credit repair. I I quickly contacted them on; bellabrucehacks dot co for credit repair and behold the results were amazing, I now have an excellent 802 and all negatives have been erased as well..

      Never hurts to ask, even if you only get a 20% discount on what you owe. Probably better bet that you can get them to drop the rate to 0% introductory for six months to help you get out ahead. If they won't, find another card that will give you a one-year 0% rate on balance transfers then transfer to that one. Will save a lot on the interest.

      Not sure why they would be asking for $2,850 if the judgement is for less (unless they have documented late fees that were allowed). If it's a legal judgement then you'll have to pay it whether it's on your report or not so I'd definitely try settling for around $1,000 if you can.

    @finalfant111 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can a creditor win a garnishment case if you have given the Creditor a reasonable payback time frame and payment plan but they didn't accept?? For example, I owe to several predatory loans. The type of loans with several hundred percent interest rates. One of them as an example I borrowed $3k. The original payment plan was having me pay roughly $500 a month ($250 paid bi-weekly) for a little over 2 years. The interest rate is so high, I would be paying back nearly $14,000 by the end of it. I defaulted of course after about 6 payments. I had already paid them $1500 and only about $24 went to principal. I still owed $2976. When they came knocking, I offered to pay them $250 a month for 15 months. I felt that was reasonable considering it would pay back the principal with an extra $750 on top of the $1500 they already got from me for a total payback of roughly $5250. They denied the offer and now are pursuing possible wage garnishment. I have made similar offers to several of the other loans. Would they win a case against me if I had given them reasonable terms, would the judge really take the side of these loan sharks? I mean, I am willing to pay them back, and willing to do so WITH profit.

      Hard to say without knowing the details. I would wonder why they are wanting $2,840 when the judgment was only for $1,400. Check the judgement to see how much if any they are allowed to charge for interest or late fees. If you truly owe the $2,840 with allowed interest then I doubt you'd be able to negotiate less than the $1,400 but should be able to settle for that.

The Judgment holder received nothing and I just filed my taxes the end of the year and received my LARGE REFUND!! It is a non-interest saving account! lol I also marked my court docket entry web page as a favorite and check it daily to see if the attorney files anything with the court to attach my bank account.

      I’m glad you saw this first. I did freedom debt relief for over a year and it was a complete waste of time. They were taking over 50% of what I paid them every month as part of their fees. It would have taken me 4 years to pay off all my debt through them. Thankfully, I negotiated all of my debt and was able to agree to 30% for almost all of my outstanding debt.
      Just do it yourself, you’re much better off. Good luck.

      It's harder to get a lower payoff if they're not under pressure. You might try opening a new card with a 0% intro rate and transferring, or ask your current card to transfer to an intro rate to pay it off without interest.

    Great advice. We own several businesses and looking at chapter 13. We used our personal credit cards as working capital and our cc debt is six figures. I keep great records so I know down to the penny, what our debt is. After seeing your video, I’m going to try to negotiate a settlement. If your credit card debt is in the six figures, is it realistic to negotiate below 50%? Bottom line, we can’t pay all this debt so if they don’t accept settlement, they may get much less.

      They'll usually pass it to collections after six months so now is a good time to negotiate a settlement if you can. Tell them you've got a loan from a friend and can pay off 40% now if they'll take it. They'll usually try getting a little more tell them best you can do is 60% (might have to adjust the numbers for what you can actually cover) and they'll usually take it.

      Ernest here! Hope you are all staying safe. I had judgments on my profile last year plus unpaid hospital bills I couldn’t payoff as I was facing repossession on one of my properties. I NEEDED! to get my credit score up and at the same time clear the loans out. I saw a review of CREDIT PATCH UP LLC on here and I contacted them at 'Gibbs@creditpatchup.com'I was in contact with Michael Gibbs, he put me through on how to go about it and they got it fixed in 22days I can recommend them as a team of experts because they got the job done. Heartfelt appreciation to them.

    I have three credit cards that are all maxed out. Two are 5K and one is 1500. Someone gave me a check for 5K the other day. Do you think I could pay it all off with the 5K?

      Probably not going to get them to take less than half of what you owe, especially if you're not behind on payments. You could probably pay off one of the $5K and the $1,500 with it though.

      Let's Talk Money! with Joseph Hogue, CFA OK thank you. Do you think it would be reasonable if I offered 3500 on the 5K? I will tell them id pay it that day. Or should I go down to 3000?

    • @josephhogue

      I'd say start at the $3,000 to give yourself room to negotiate but be ready to accept $4,000 if they'll take it. Getting a 20% discount on your debt is pretty good.
