Wow that was fast!

Called to dispute some things on my CR yesterday. A balance was still effecting util for a card I removed my self as an AU on. Rep said it would take 30 days , login to CK and it's gone lol score goes up 9 points to 647 and my fico goes from 675 to 717. Hard inquiries falling off like its going out of style. Didnt know that card was effecting me that much..

Re: Wow that was fast!

O hey, I have the exact issue; I was an AU and was removed. My CK report still reports the balance from before I was removed. My TU report reports a balance up to the month that I was removed, but this account is still under. My CK util is 10% but my actual util is 4% if I don't include the balance on the old AU account.
 
After you disputed, did you lose the whole tradeline or was the balance just updated?

Thats what I am on the fence about. I have to decide if I want to lose a positive TL or have an increased util
