Re: Credit Union will not report $0 balance after discharge

I will check with Trustee but I am pretty sure they paid them in accordance to the terms.  I can see all the payments in my case online.

Unfortunately, this CU plays hard ball. Smiley Sad.  I wrote 4 goodwill letters to CEO and CM asking for a good will deletion.  No go.  

 

Just recently last month since I am trying to bounce back from CH 13 I tried to open an account there again.  I was told since I filed bankruptcy with them there servcies are no longer offered to those previous client Smiley Surprised   - Oh well took my business to another CU.  The thing is I had a good payment history with them before I filed. 

 

Then I disputed the amount and past due balance still reporting to EQ that I owe.    So I either I report them or ITS.


All CUs have this attitude when you burn them in BK. As a rule you dont open deposit accounts at banks or CUs that were burned by either a CO or BK. The only way they would open their arms again is if you paid back every dime that was owed not just a percentage as done by CH-13..

Re: Credit Union will not report $0 balance after discharge

Well I got some success!!!    I called EQ was told DFCU is reporting it after my dispute  and they cannot change.   I placed a call to DFCU they connected me to the right person and she placed a call when I was on the phone straight to EQ and told them the the update was to clear all balances to $0.  EQ said would update it in 24- 48 hours.

 

That was yesterday and today it is fix.   So sucess without having to report.    1 down and more fixing to go Smiley Happy

 

Thanks to everyone who replied.  It is much appreciated.

Your best bet is to file an CFPB complaint. I had the same problem last year with an account that keeps reporting balance and the CFPB took care of it in 3 days!. They are no joke and they will follow up on it. Send them your schedule and discharge papers.
