Well I paid it off as soon as it was reported because I just totally forgot about this bill. It was no biggie ($300 collection). And the agreement was for them to clear it off my report asap.Did you get this in writing?They did.... to EX and TU, but it took a while for them to take it off EQ. So maybe two months ago, I disputed and they finally cleared it off my report. And today it's back on... I just don't get it. This is just wrong.Is it back on them all or just EQ?
Becuase they took off that collection, I was FINALLY approved for my very first [and last] Discover card. Now I'm afraid they're going to take it away because of this. This really sucks.
They MUST notify you within 5 days to re-insert, The funisher must certify the data, the CRA must prevent re-insert.
