Call them and ask. It has worked for me a few times. But I do have excellent credit and just forgot to pay due to travels. Won't work if you are constantly late.

It really depends on the company, who you get on the phone, how persistent you are, and whether you can convince them that you're trying to make a fresh start and have learned your lesson. The last bit sounds like a bit of a whiny appeal, but some say it's worked for them. You'd have to offer some pretty convincing evidence, IMHO.
