I read on another post (will try and find it later for you) that someone had 2 grand outstanding and made offer of 1500 that was accepted. Guess that helps with a starting point..... maybe consider that amount or slightly less if they 'may' accept all offers like that?
The OP did mention if I remember correctly that it was up to the local 'branch' what offers they accept etc due to their own targets! Ironic as it may seem but if your local branch has a lot of debtors then they may write off more for you.
HTH - will post thread later when I get a chance to find it...2010 - year of the troll

LOL it was funny though - i'm applying for so many accounts because of the following;
1. The CRA's incorrectly linked me with someone, therefore each time a search is carried out against my name and I get rejected credit due to the incorrect information this is grounds for libel.
2. There are several of us on CAG doing this and at the end we will look to sue the CRA's for libel in a class action
3. Each libel offence carries a maximum punishable fine of 5 grand
Upon reading the above, I hope the cynics can now rest in the knowledge that getting declined for accounts is part of what i'm trying to achieve. However it only counts as libel if the rejection letter states that they cannot give an account due to 'adverse information obtained from the credit agency' or words to that effect - some do, some don't thus we apply for some and then apply for others dependant upon what rejection letter arrives.
If I get offered accounts then i'd simply close them. I do not recommend what I am doing to others and have never maintained that approach either.
Hope this helps clarify things for any newbies.......2010 - year of the troll

Paranoid Personality Disorder is a condition characterized by excessive distrust and suspiciousness of others. This disorder is only diagnosed when these behaviors become persistent and very disabling or distressing. This disorder should not be diagnosed if the distrust and suspiciousness occurs exclusively during the course of Schizophrenia, a Mood Disorder With Psychotic Features, or another Psychotic Disorder or if it is due to the direct physiological effects of a neurological (e.g., temporal lobe epilepsy) or other general medical condition.
Complications:
Individuals with this disorder are generally difficult to get along with and often have problems with close relationships because of their excessive suspiciousness and hostility. Their combative and suspicious nature may elicit a hostile response in others, which then serves to confirm their original expectations. Individuals with this disorder have a need to have a high degree of control over those around them. They are often rigid, critical of others, and unable to collaborate, although they have great difficulty accepting criticism themselves. They often become involved in legal disputes. They may exhibit thinly hidden, unrealistic grandiose fantasies, are often attuned to issues of power and rank, and tend to develop negative stereotypes of others, particularly those from population groups distinct from their own. More severely affected individuals with this disorder may be perceived by others as fanatics and form tightly knit cults or groups with others who share their paranoid beliefs.0
