Yes. It is an absolute fallacy that a creditor/lender has to accept any payment other than the full amount that was agreed upon in the original contract. Many consumer's are under the impression that as long as they make a payment of some type to a credit card issuer or lending institution, respossession or legal action is not possible; that is totally false. As soon as a borrower misses a scheduled payment the contract has been defaulted on and unless there is a "grace" period, the creditor can take any action deemed necessary. Additonally, the lender can continue to accept lesser payments and apply them to the interest and penalty fees and be within their legal rights to file a lawsuit, repossess a vehicle or begin foreclosure proceedings.
