How does a settlement payment to a debt collector affect my credit?
If you take the percentage payoff how does that affect your credit in the long run?
If the bad debt is on your credit report, paying it off will be in your best interest.
It doesn’t matter if it is a settlement payment or not, as long as it says it is paid.
Any bad debt that shows as unpaid is infinitely worse than bad debt that is paid.
