I’ve seen a few instances where GW letters get a paid collection deletion from the Good ol’ CMI group.
Â
Could anyone who has addresses, both email and snail mail please PM them to me? They’re my LAST hurdle!!!
Â
Thanks All.

I have an old debt with Time Warner that sits with CMI now from 2004 for $173. It’s the only thing that I have listed in collections debt. If I pay it, does my score increase maybe? Just curious of what anyone else thinks.

Looking for some advice with an AT&T account placed into collections with CMI Group. I started to get letters from CMI, and thought it was some sort of scam, since I dont remember having a balance with AT&T. I logged into my account with AT&T and sure enough it had a zero balance. I emailed AT&T to make sure everything was ok and and got a response the same day. A rep said that the account was sent to collections on 12-2-09 and transferred to CMI and the balance shows zero. The rep said I can contact CMI and discuss the amount owed or submit payment to AT&T and they will contact CMI to notify about the payment.Â
Â
Correct me if Im wrong, but that sounds like AT&T stil owns the debt and CMI is just collecting for them. I sent an email reply and asked if they would be nice enough to contact CMI to remove any negative reporting on my CR after I submit the payment in full. That was sent today and about an hour later I get a response with a friendly no. And this is what the rep claims
Â
“Unfortunately at this point, the only thing that will happen after you make the payment for the $193.29 payment is that your account will be marked paid in full for seven years before being removed. Having a paid in full on your credit history is better on your credit score than the current status of unpaid. If you have any further questions or concerns, please contact us”.
Â
Does this basically mean im screwed for the next 7 years? Even if I submit the full amount, wouldnt this still affect my credit for the next 7 years? I dont believe the payment being marked paid in full really helps or am I wrong?

If I paid a CMI account last month, does that mean it will not fall off until 7 more years from last month??

After clicking several links that have disappeared I have questions I hope someone can help with.
Â
I have a $520 medical bill in collection with CMI. The OC is in TX. Â
Â
I am willing to PFD. Not sure about the HIPPA thing. Not sure how to handle this at all.
Â
Any help would be greatly appreciated.Â
Â
This is the only item on my credit reports. Since coming to these forums and applying the advice here all my scores went from 621-614-612 to 733-733-742!

Has anyone had any experiences with CMI collections? I have a collection from them and need an idea how to try and get them to remove it.
