Credit Card Settlement Question

Hi,

Has anyone had any experience with settling credit cards? Specifically, what the normal percentage of an accepted settlement would be… if someone has a $3000 debt , what would be a reasonable offer on the balance that the credit card company would be likely to accept.

I realize the affect it will have on one’s credit report.

You will get widly different results from different companies depending on many factors. That said, I’ve seen settlements for as little as 50% and as high as 90%.
