Are you obligated to pay collection agencies?

Link to article: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/paying-sold-debt/ and link to schedule a free consultation for a credit sweep: https://live.vcita.com/site/expertcreditsweeps. Many consumers have it wrong when they think they have no obligation to pay a debt buyer/collector (Portfolio Recovery, Midland, etc.). I found an article that explains why a debtor is legally obligated to pay and wanted to share it with you guys! In no way does this mean that you can't dispute it on your credit report; it just means that when an original creditor sells the unpaid/charged-off account to a collector, your obligation is now with them. "Othewise, the debt purchasing industry wouldn't exist".

I've been on many calls when a consumer said they've been disputed this by asking for a copy of the invoice, or stating that the contract was cancelled. I've also heard them say that the wan to see a signed contract stating they agreed to pay or owe that specific company. So....I've given a few examples of some text that can be used on a dispute letter to the credit bureaus to get these types of collections removed. The is almost a follow up to my last video on removing inaccurate charge-offs.

3 Resons why you should wait to apply for new credit

Applying for new credit before all derogatory items are deleted: My advice to my clients is always the same: wait until you're done with your credit repair or credit sweep program, but have a strategy to move forward from there. Here's a few reasons why: #1 you may be denied if you still have 1-2 items remaning and will end up with new inquiries that will drop your score #2 it may hinder the process of removing the last few items and can add 1-3 months to the timeframe #3 you may be approved with a very low limit and would have to wait 3-5 months prior to requesting an increase. In comparison, you can wait til everything has been completed and obtain a higher limit right off the bat. Here's a real-life example: I have a client would only has 4/86 negative items remaining and he wanted to move forward with his mortgage.
