Hi Chargers
You should always try to go for Pay for deletion agreement before you pay off the debt. If the creditor agrees to PFD, then the negative listings will be removed from your report once you pay off the debt. But if you do not get this letter in writing then after you pay off the debt, the creditor may not remove the listing and you will have no weapon against the creditor. But if you have the PFD agreement in writing, you can send a copy of the letter to the credit bureaus who will get the listing removed from your report.

Justin, Lets say that a person gets this pay for delete in writing...how long after the debt is paid does the collection agenct have to go in and fix or upate the persons report? Now lets say they don't do anything (collection agency) what is the first step in getting them to deliver their promise to delete?

I would think that if you send them a copy of the paid in full and a copy of the pay for delete letter then they should be good to go with this. I would give it a shot anyway.

I would hope. Thats sems to be enough info and if they do not hold up their end then you can send the proof to the credit reporting agencies. I just was wondering does the debt collector have to validate to the reporting agenciy that they agreed to this? You know how it is always their word over the debtors.
