I'm trying to fix some issues I have due to basically life collapse a few years ago.
I have two credit cards that are listed as charged off from two years ago, about 5k each.
So far they haven't come after with collecters etc. I'm trying to read up on how I can settle out with them but I keep seeing either clickbait or confusing (to me) info.
If I send them a pay to delete letter for 5% of the original total does that reset some clock of limitations? does it benefit me somehow?
Credit score is listed as mid 600s. Main reason why I'm approaching this now is I'd like to buy a new(er) car and would like a loan.
There are a couple of threads from the past how to settle it out, but is this the right approach?
