Dear Creditor,
Re: Account Number__________

After a long period of financial crisis, I’m finally in a position where I can take care of my debt whose account number is given above. I would appreciate in advance all efforts your company is willing to take in order to help me resolve my debt problems. I’m sincerely trying to settle this debt and pay it off faster.

The amount I would propose to pay towards full settlement of the debt is $___________. Additionally, I would request you to take off any late payment or charge-offs on this account from my credit report.

The fact is, I’m currently negotiating debt with several creditors and I have limited amount of money to pay the creditors. So, I have decided to settle only those debts for which I can satisfy the terms and conditions as mutually agreed between myself and my creditors.

I have already reached acceptable settlements with a couple of creditors and I doubt whether I will have enough funds available till the end of this month. However, I’d like to regain my credit rating and if you can help me do so, I’d be willing to offer you some more money as part of my settlement.

If you find the above terms and conditions acceptable, please sign this letter of agreement and send me a copy. Upon receipt of this agreement, I shall forward you the stated amount through money order.

Yours truly,

Dear Creditor,

Re: Account Number__________

This letter is a written request for a temporary change in the repayment terms of my debt account. I am currently going through financial crisis and may not be able to follow the current payment plan. Neither do I plan to file a bankruptcy nor do I intend to default on this debt. 

I do have some income from [mention income sources]. However, when I examined my financial situation and planned a budget, it became necessary for me to request each of my creditors to accept a reduced/alternative payment plan for a number of months (specify the number, if possible). 

I would appreciate your co-operation in making this payment plan effective shortly. I request you to accept a monthly payment of $____________ instead of the regular payments of $____________ made on the [date] of each month. I hereby assure you that I shall not add to my debt till my financial situation improves. 

I shall begin making regular monthly payments as soon as I recover from this financial crisis. I hope you will understand my situation and co-operate with me. I shall surely notify you of any change in my financial situation.

Your co-operation during this difficult time is highly appreciated.

Yours sincerely,

Your Signature
