Can i re-open a charge off car loan account to pay it off with a payment plan?

Hi Combo,

Yes, definitely you can. Just check the statute of limitations on that account. If it is past the SOL, then paying it is not advisable. Otherwise, you can talk to the collection agency and settle the debt with a revised repayment plan. Calculate the amount you will be able to give the CA per month comfortably. Before doing this, send a pay for delete letter to the CA requesting them to remove the negative listing from your report. Always send this letter through certified mail so that you have the return receipt with you.

Hi combo,

Yes you sure can as long as they are willing to work with you on setting up a payment plan. But send the pay for delete letter to see if they will also remove the charge of from your report. Like Justin said make sure to send it certified.
