Question:
What is the difference between loan settlement and loan closure?
Answer:
Closure means paying off the full amount owed under the contract. Settlement means agreeing to a lower payment to close the account. Settlement can change how reports are made, so it's very important to keep records. Both need written proof, receipts, and a No-Dues/closure letter to keep claims from coming back.
