Please post your success stories with full and final settlement offers to creditors.
I havent had one yet. I was offered a full and final settlement over the phone from Moorcroft debt recovery the dca for my Littlewoods debt. They offered me a full and final settlement figure of 560 pounds for a debt that was 680 pounds. I refused at the time as i didnt have that sort of money avaiable.

I have had a fe over the years... to be honest would never have been able to get close to finishing them all off without doing it.
Had one for 2k - that accepted 1k
RBS accepted 4.3k on a 8k debt
have sent a few offer letters out for my final £1400.00 debt so see what comes back. Some will accept 50% some will accept 70% guess you have to try.0 -
had one from Lowell for my kays account after asking for cca which they couldnt produce
for £84 on a £300 debtSealed pot challenger # 10

:eek: I have just received one in the post.... Balance £14078.......Pay 26% one pament of £3726 OR 3 instalments of £1242 OR 6 instalments of £621, and they will consider my account settled in full!!!!
Unfortunately I am not in a position to take them up on this offer, but 26% is a great settlement figure. Hopefully the chance will come up again when I am in a better finacial position!!
They have also stated that if I can increase my monthly instalment, they will be able to reduce my balance by making further payment(s) to my debt as a gesture of goodwill!!0 -

Who gave you that offer? They must be pretty desparateDebt free May 20110 -
Natwest took one third F&F years ago.
Liverpool Victoria took 18% but that was because they mis sold the insurance and we fought 8 years refusing to pay anything more than the minimum token payment.
Crapquest 80% we just wanted rid of them.Barclaycard 3800
Nothing to do but hibernate till spring
