morrow Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 I called to check the status of DH TU report and guess what?So far for second round online Ive got 2 collections deleted!!! One had a $0 balance but the other had a $1055 balance !!!Happy Happy Joy Joy and....he has 2 repos on his EX report, they nice lady informed me that they still havent heard back from the OC but they have until the 17th (1 of the OC failed to get to EQ resulting in deletion so Im keepin my fingers crossed they dont with EX)And for some reason, I dont know why....none of my or my DH 7 collections have been reported to EX....the CA informed me that they reported it to EX but its never surfaced. Guess Im pretty lucky....one less CRA to deal with in getting the collections off.Also...spoke with Bon Marche Credit, sent them a GW letter in March, the just now sent me a letter saying that they could not honor my request because they need more info....called em up and gave them my account #....they guy said, "What were you asking us to do?" I told him I would like a GW adjustment pretty please, and he said, "Yes we informed the CRA yesterday at 1:27 pm to update your account! :D He said it takes a long time for the Bon to honor requests. I also asked him a general ? about OC having the capability to update accounts removing lates. He said they cando it if there is an explanation ie:moved and bill didnt reach new address.It also seemed like he was looking through my account for any excuse to do it...He told me he was trying to find someway where he could update it for me.Anywho...got 5 or 6 late pays taken off, cool beans!

ADSOFT Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 Cool, congrats.Hey, I just sent a hardship letter to an auto finance co.You might see my post in one of the other sections.Anyhow, how difficult is it get a repo off your report if you pay the balance and the OC desides to play hardball and not turn it into a positive thing.... I might have to do this to get it fixed....hey what did you do about your DH Chexsystems thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morrow Posted May 6, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 <blockquote>Originally posted by ADSOFT...hey what did you do about your DH Chexsystems thing?</blockquote>It was never in CHEXSYSTEMS. It was strictly through the bank. We never bounced checks with the payee....just with the bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LetoAtreides Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 Great job! I just love reading the success stories here. I just started on April 23rd on my first round. I got my first letter from TU saying " We don't accept validation requests from credit repair agencies ". Gotta love it, sent it certified mail via online USPS so I'm just going to sit out my 37 days and send them my delete now letter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morrow Posted May 6, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 Wait a minute....did you send a validations letter to the CRA asking them to validate your debt?Your supposed to send validation letters to CA, not the CRAs! CRAs dont have to VALIDATE anything...they just have to investigate and update/verify.Sorry...but if you sent validation letters to the CRAs, your going to be waiting alot longer than 37 days. My advice would be to go back and see what letter you DID send them and maybe start over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You dispute with CRA's that some information is incorrect. They then have 30 days to verify the information they show. They will contact creditor by mail or phone and ask about the account. You request debt validation from CA's to have them show you that they are within SOL to collect, have contract with OC to collect, and complete accounting history of the account. This is a bit confusing at first. You may have to wait this one out and dispute agian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caliwomen2000 Posted May 18, 2003 Report Share Posted May 18, 2003 Hey Morrow whatever happened with the Bon Marche GW request? Did they end up deleting the late pays? I want to have my lates deleted also. But then again its in a R1 Status so maybe i should i should just leave it alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason they removed them was because I had moved within that time frame and they assumed that the bill was late because of an address mix up.
