What happens when you don't pay full amount to collection agency?

All that would happen is the credit agency will send it back to American Express..then they will sell it to another credit agency. They try to threaten you in any way possible..they want their commision. Pay it off when you can...lots of times credit agencies will allow you to settle the debt for much less than you owe. DO NOT TAKE OUT A LOAN

What happens when you don't pay full amount to collection agency?

If you want to pay then you call them and work out a settlement. They will set you up with a payment plan. Make sure you get the plan in writing. Also, Tell them you will pay the account if they agree to remove the collection from your credit report. If they say they can't do this then they are full of it. There is no federal requirement for how things are reported to the Credit Bureaus. I used to have credit problems and most of my accounts I settled for at least 50% of the balance I owed. Some more and some less. All of them I had monthly pays plans.

P.S. You need to care about your credit score. If you don't then cars and houses will come at a much higher cost. You may not even be able to get a credit card for a long time.

What happens when you don't pay full amount to collection agency?

Send the collections agency a cease and Desist letter. I have provided a link below for a good letter to use. Understand however, if they get this, that they could take you to court and try to obtain the money from you that way. However, if you are not working and currently have no form of income, most likely they will end up dropping the account once they get this letter.
