Re: Question - after bk

I included Capital One as well.... I am going to wait for discharge before I try to apply with them.  My fiance got a card from them that I am an AU on, so I am hoping that will help me.

Re: Question - after bk

When I did apply with them I got a letter in the mail stating unpaid obligations with them.  That's when I said I will wait till discharge and then try my luck.

Re: Question - after bk

Have they updated your CR yet?  All of my accounts with them now have a 0 balance and say "included in bankruptcy."  One of them was still reporting a balance, so I disputed it as IIB and they changed it to 0 balance, pays as agreed and closed.  Weird.  Should I wait all the way for the actual discharge?

If your CR has been updated then you're good to go.  I need to check mine.  Where did you check yours without incurring a fee?

Re: Question - after bk

I just did "Initiate a DIspute" on the credit bureaus website.  Then I could look at everything and dispute away.

Just checked mine and it hasn't been updated as of yet, but I did a file a dispute on a few accounts in the meanwhile.
