Capital One Credit card department,
I have a legal item showing on my credit report for $3800.00. This was from Capital One. I was not allowed to make minimal payments during a financial hard ship I was in due to particular medical issues and money. I was trying to work to keep this item paid the best I could at the time. They wanted me to put a huge " down payment '' in order to lock in and secure a settlement amount. I was not able to do that. I had no one to borrow money from and cause if this account on my credit I could n't do a balance transfer like they suggested. This item was place in my credit as a lien item ( ref # - ). I have tried to work with them to get this matter resolved and was asking the best attempt to pay this with payments of $50.00 which they told me I HAD to set up with auto payments. They did not allow. Me to make payments on this as a settlement amount, which I feel is unfair and a lie. I have heard other people are able to do so and have done so.
I made a complaint to capital one and it was supposed to be sent back to original creditor, capital one, they told me I would receive a settlement offer in the mail, but never have. I am tired of the stress and hassle to try to pay this dept. I have had many unexpected medical bills come up. I think it is wrong when companies take advantage of consumer because we do n't know the proper wording to use to get them to be honest with us. It is unfair that one can pay 30 % of a debt that is owed and make payments toward that but they refuse to allow me to and say that 's not possible. That is unfair and deceptive and against the law.
