Dear Sir/Madam,
I am currently facing certain financial difficulties and might not be able to make the monthly payment to you. I do not want to apply for bankruptcy and would like to try on a different pay plan so that I do not default on your account.

This is a strategy which might be acceptable to you. [Give a strategy which you are considering]

[Talk about your financial trouble only as required for official purpose]

I am sure you will agree to this plan or may suggest your own. You can always let your representatives call me and finalize the executable strategy.

If you cannot adjust with the plan then I fear that I have to default on this account. I do intend to pay and really need your cooperation in this matter.

Thank you for your cooperation
Yours Sincerely

Re: Letter of Dispute [give your account number]

Dear Sir/Madam,
This is a formal notification in order to remind you that you have not replied to my earlier dispute letters. [Give the dates of the letters]. I am enclosing the copies of all the letters and the copies of the return receipt signed.

As per the Federal Legislation, you were supposed to respond within 30 days of the receipt of my letter. As the time limit has expired which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I would suggest that you sort out the matter soon. I am maintaining all the communications made, for help during a FTC investigation.

For your convenience I am sending all the copies of my requests and proof of the inaccuracies on my credit report. Thus I hope that the information provided is verified and the corrections are done on my credit report at the earliest.

Thank you for your cooperation
Yours Sincerely
