If a debt has gone to a Collection Agency can you still pay the debt off to the original person/company owed instead of having to send it in to the Collection Agency?

    As a rule: No. When I've turned someone into Collection, the collection agency gives me very clear instructions that I am NOT to accept any payments and to direct the debtor to them. The collection company makes their money by collecting from you and usually paying the company 50% of what was collected. But, it wouldn't hurt to call the original person/company to see what they have to say.
