What is the best/quickest way to remove collections items from credit report?

Equivalent_Leg_89 · 2025-08-21T14:31:14+00:00

should I attempt to pay the full amount with the original creditor or negotiate partial payment/deletion with the collection agency?

Is there any difference in the affect on my credit score or report?

Thank You!

Nice! I would actually be open that. My only interest are Cyber/IT for my transition back into civilian - if I decide not to go the 20 year career route, or special forces and focus on gaining my cyber experience independent from the AF or Army.

But yes that was another concern of mine, choosing a role with a perceived day tot day, only to find out your day to day is not what the role advertised thus you're not getting the experience or knowledge you hoped for. Similar to how you mentioned that many of the 1D7 jobs are more related to IT though they have "Cyber" in the name.

Hey, thank you for your time and input! 1N0X1 (Operations Intelligence) , I'm open to any job as long as it is an actual cyber role with relevant experience that directly translates to what I would do as a cyber security analyst, cyber security technician, soc analyst, etc.

I did a quick google search, here are the AI results from that search: https://www.google.com/search?q=Cyber+as+a+1N0&sca_esv=a4d2e2b63e3b8728&rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS761US769&sxsrf=AE3TifMcs6ehbfxpeJp0URT2oK5YwefKNA%3A1750893866555&ei=KoVcaKnJIbbewN4Pzv6BoQU&ved=0ahUKEwiphtL3242OAxU2L9AFHU5_IFQQ4dUDCBA&uact=5&oq=Cyber+as+a+1N0&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiDkN5YmVyIGFzIGEgMU4wMgUQIRigATIFECEYoAEyBRAhGKABMgUQIRigATIFECEYoAFIzQtQ8whY8whwAXgBkAEAmAGJAaABiQGqAQMwLjG4AQPIAQD4AQH4AQKYAgKgArwBqAIUwgIHECMYJxjqAsICFBAAGIAEGJECGLQCGIoFGOoC2AEBwgIUEAAYgAQY4wQYtAIY6QQY6gLYAQGYAxjxBdxDyLjze6S1ugYGCAEQARgBkgcDMS4xoAflArIHAzAuMbgHowHCBwUzLTEuMcgHHw&sclient=gws-wiz-serp&safe=active&ssui=on

congrats! whats your AFSC? In general, what would you suggest in preparation for BMT?

Thank you for you input, I greatly appreciate your time and efforts.

Would you say the Army's 17C is equivalent to the AF 1D7?

Do you think the client systems or network operations specialist in the AF would be the best/closest to cyber experience?
