Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Florida
settlement issues
I am having trouble with a collection agency locateed in flordia, they offered on the phone to settle my debt but stated they do not send settlement letters out when i requested one, before i send my payment in. is it illegal for a collection agency not to send a settlement letter to me before i make a payment or do i have to make the payment and then wait for the settlement letter?

Re: settlement issues
Demand the settlement letter first. Without it you have no substantail proof that a settlement was consumated.
