Paying them does not necessarily mean they will drop off your credit report, they may just show as paid and in fact, it could cause your score to drop depending on how old they are.

Much more difficult now that they are paid.  Usually your best chance at deletion is to request/negotiate before you pay them.

Since they are paid, you can call them and ask, but you have lost your leverage.
