Offer Payment Schedule

Note 1:  Do not send this letter if you can't afford to make the monthly payments you are agreeing to make.  It will not look good for you down the road if you default on an agreement you initiated!

Note 2:  Do not agree to pay old debt by making monthly payments because a debt collector has threatened you in any way.  See Out of Statute Debt and Handling Debt Collectors if you have been contacted by a debt collector.
