    Personally I have kept 1 letter with an account number on from every debtor included in my SOA, the rest I destroyed. (It comes in handy for your clean up stage to have the account numbers.)

    I basically did the same.

    I still have to this day something from each debt/creditor just in case. The rest was shredder food.
