Questions Fréquentes

What is a goodwill letter?

A goodwill letter is a written request to a creditor asking them to remove a late payment from your credit report as a courtesy. It is not a dispute. You acknowledge the late payment happened but explain the circumstances and ask for forgiveness based on your otherwise positive history.

Do goodwill letters actually work?

Yes, but not always. Success rates vary by creditor and situation. Creditors with strong customer service reputations (like American Express and USAA) tend to be more receptive. Having a long history of on-time payments before the late payment significantly improves your chances.

How many goodwill letters should I send?

Start with one. If denied, wait 30 days and try again with a different representative or a slightly different approach. Some people succeed on the second or third attempt. After three denials, the creditor is unlikely to change their position.

Can I send a goodwill letter for a collection or charge-off?

You can try, but goodwill letters are most effective for isolated late payments on otherwise good accounts. Creditors are much less likely to grant goodwill removals for charge-offs or accounts that went to collections. For those situations, pay-for-delete negotiations are a better strategy.
