getting rid derogatory status

Hello everyone,
            I'm new to the credit clean up and welcome all positive advise, Since 4/08 I've really been keeping an eye on my CR I'm 1 yr into keeping all pymt current.
 
Can anyone tell me how I get a current account out of derogatory status or is this possible before balance is paid.

Re: getting rid derogatory status

IF the account is no longer past due and you have made several on-time payments- The account STATUS should be updated to OK/pays as agreed" or "OK/Was 60 days past due"
 
The past poor payments will be removed in 7 years - You can try calling or sending a GW letter to the creditor.

Re: getting rid derogatory status

i disputed with all three that the account was "obsolete" and to "please change status to PAID,CLOSED" 
 
EX and EQ complied and changed the status, but TU remains unchanged.  i hope this helps..

Re: getting rid derogatory status

Re: getting rid derogatory status

Account status IS part of scoring. I had my biggest score changes in for status changes. 
 
FICO looks at payment history, Account status and comments and finds the worst part of them-
 
Legally - if they report, they MUST REPORT accurate!!!!!!!
