VonAngel (aka EarthAngel) Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 I guess so, Lyle. I've gotten those crappy things a couple of months back. I just ignored them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brattylatina Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 I never answer these things. I have also never had my disputes held up because I failed to send them anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimdiamond Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 well i got those also, but i responded and sure enough got ALL, every single negative tradeline and collection deleted, and they keep coming! i keep getting equifax updates "we have reviewed the accounts per your request and that item has been DELETED from yoru credit profile"...i love it..i dont know if reporting to the FTC did it, or what..but all of a sudden i just kept getting updated reports deleted, deleted, deleted, deleted. most were collections or chargeoffs. stuff as current as 2 months ago, and as old as 5 years ago.so i think maybe if you do respond and follow their procedure it might work.the irony of it all, and this is what i said to them when I called after receivinv the request to identify myself for "my protection".i said "so you are asking me to send back my personal information, social security, a copy of my drivers license and a bill from my currrent residence, and you want me to send it to a PO BOX us mail? okay then, so lets say someone intercepts that information and steals my identity, which is possible happened to begin wtih, and thats why im disputing the information. i asked if i caould send it ups or something more secure, they said no, not to a po box, i aksed for another address, corporrate headquarters, something, anything. they said only to the po box listed ion the letter. so i did it anyway and blurred out the info on my social figureing they could figure it out. guess it worked, cause like i said each day was like christmas going to the mailbox..."deleted"..in fact, cant wait to get home 2nite and see what awaits.
