Yes, you can negotiate a payment plan with a debt collection agency for a medical bill in NY. Contact the agency to discuss your financial situation and propose a payment arrangement that works for you. Make sure to get the agreement in writing and stick to the payment plan to avoid any further collection actions.
If the collection agency did not accept your payment, the debt should be discharged from their control. You might need to contact an attorney to make sure these debts are removed from your credit report. If you are making payments to the company that sent you to collections, they will need to remove you from the collections agency.
A written agreement with a company is 4 years, and a oral agreement is 2 years from the date of last payment or activity.Remember, that even though a credit card company states that they will take you to court if you do not make a payment, or put a judgment on your credit - this is not true!!The only way a creditor/collection agency will take you to court is if you owe child support or taxes. Other then that you will not go to court for this type of debt. Do not let them threaten you in any way. Make sure you settle on this debt when you have at least 50% of the balance owed saved in your savings.Get an agreed settlement in writing that day before make your final payment. Then request a letter stating that the account is now paid in full instead of settled for less. Good luck!
It is generally not advisable to provide routing number and checking account information over the phone to a debt collection company.

Consider asking for the request in writing and consult with a consumer protection agency or legal professional if you have concerns.
Yes, 6 years is the SOL on credit card debt in Michigan. It is not only the last payment made on the card. If you made a charge on the card after the payment then it would be after that. Basically the SOL clock starts ticking when the last activity was made on the card by YOU - not the credit card company. Once that period is up, you can no longer legally be sued for the debt. Although some collection agencies will try it. Learn your debt collection rights by reading up on the FDCPA.

A historical record of a person's payment activity is typically referred to as a financial transaction history. It includes details of all the payments made by the person, such as purchases, bills, and transfers, and can be useful for tracking spending, budgeting, and financial planning. This information is often stored in bank statements, online banking platforms, and credit card statements.
Have the collection agency send a written agreement accepting the settlement or payment amount agreed upon BEFORE rendering any payment(s).
No! The only obligation of the collection agency regarding a debt is to accurately report the debt...i.e. balance outstanding, current status, and payment history. However, if you are paying or contemplating paying a collection agency, it would be wise to negotiate a positive outcome...i.e. the total removal of the account from your credit profile in exchange for payment. This should be negotiated prior to paying the collection agency and the agreement should be in writing.
