Goodwill Letter
A Goodwill Letter is a written request to a creditor or lender to remove a negative item from a credit report. The main purpose of a Goodwill Letter is to request leniency from the creditor or lender and ask them to remove a negative item that may be harming an individual's credit score.
A Goodwill Letter typically consists of several parts, including a brief description of the situation, an explanation of the negative item on the credit report, and a request for the creditor or lender to remove the negative item as an act of goodwill.
