Settlement Offers

September 29, 2008

A Provanta negotiator offered $3,801.25 to settle on a $11,155.00 delinquent account.  Do to previous dealings with this agency the negotiator was sure her offer would be declined, but hoped they would counter within Provanta’s guidelines.

Today the negotiator received a call declining her offer and a counter offer of $8,373.25 was given.  We declined the offer based from our clients financial situation.

Within ten minutes another representative from the same office called back stating she had spoke to her manager and the best she could settle for was $4,500, over three payments.  Since it was within our guidelines we were able to accept the offer, however it was a little shocking to see an offer decrease by $3,873.25 in a matter of minutes.

Great Settlement

September 29, 2008

A Provanta Debt Settlement client came to us in 2006 with a outstanding balance owed to a major credit card company of $45,055.00.  The current balance with interest and late fees was $57,388.00.

After reviewing the clients hardship and total debt amount the agent was willing to accept the $12,008.00 offer our negotiator presented.  That’s only 26% of the original balance and 20% of the current balance.

Keep Trying

September 29, 2008

A representative from a credit card issuer presented a Provanta negotiator with an offer of settlement.  The agent said, “The first offer I can make is $569.00,” which is 90% based off the balance of $632.00.

Our negotiator picked up on the words, “first offer,” that that the agent choose to use.  This lead our negotiator to believe she could offer a lower settlement.  The negotiator declined the offer and asked if that was the lowest she can go at this time.

The creditor came back with $506, or 80%  of the balance.  Again our negotiator advised the agent this was too high for our client.  The agent gave another offer of $442.  This continued on until she got down to her bottom line offer of $379.02, or 60% of the balance.

Considering this account started off with a balance under $1,000  this is a reasonable offer that will be presented to our client.
