If the full settlement amount offered is paid in full by the debtor, the debt is considered paid. When entering into a settlement of a debt the debtor should obtain all the pertinent data in writing and not agree to anything unless he or she understands the agreement in full.

I settled a debt for less than owed now I am being contacted by a debt collector for the remaining amount but original company won't send a confirmation that the debt was settled-what can I do?

You need to contact a lawyer right away. Mention to the initial company that if they do not provide proof of payment and a letter showing that the debt was settled that you will initiate a law suit against them. If they told you verbally that this is what was going to happen then you may still have to pay the amount. For more information on mortgages go to www.lowmortgageraterefinance.us
