Full and final settlement

Hi. Pls I need some advice on writing a full and final settlement to my creditors for my creditcards. Debt is about £40k across 4 companies and I want to offer about 70% settlement figure.  Is there a template here I can use?

    Debt-free wannabe board here is a better place to ask.
    I think it makes sense to offer this only after you defaulted on your debt, and not recently. Otherwise it's wasting your and their time.

    Googling "full final settlement template" brings up pages of template letters....
