The original creditor is happy and you might even get a new calendar at Christmas. If you negotiate under this scenario and you do not have enough money to pay the debt all at once, then by all means negotiate monthly payments. DO NOT agree to make a payment by a certain date. Simply agree to pay so much per month. That way if you are a day or two late, you are not in violation of any agreement. Now lets say you agreed to pay the account off over a period of 12 months. Well at the end of a six-month period you can show your lender that you are indeed serious about addressing your back debt. You have virtually turned bad credit into good credit. You have gotten the original creditor to discount your bill by 50% and he has agreed to finance you. You didn't borrow a dime to pay him back. Is that smart? You bet it is!
