I’ve had two pay for delete accounts, they were both medical bills, one was for $75 and the other for $230 (this last one I paid a few weeks ago so I’m still waiting for deletion).
I also settled a credit card debt a couple of years ago (it had been written off by the bank already). if I could negotiate the whole thing again, I would be happy to pay the full amount so it could be deleted from my report, but I didn’t know then what I know now about all this stuff. It still on my report showing as a Paid Write-Off, which is one of the worse things that can be on your report (but a little better than unpaid charge-off though). And it’ll be there for 4 more years!
Are these non credit card bills that you are trying to get deleted?
