AMEX Charge Off Deleted - Equifax

im sure like most of you all know that Equifax is the worst of all 3 CRA to deal with. Slow as hell, so backwards... in fact they are stupid at their best... well anyways I had disputed this AMEX charge off that was due to fall off in 2019 - EX and TU actually deleted almost immediately. However being the idiots they are - Equifax wasn't helpful and kept giving me the BS. I knew there was no progress with them at all so I filed a complaint with the CFPB and this morning, a little close to a month later I got a response from them via the CFPB.

 

So im sharing this to all those who have to deal or put up with the nonsense from Equifax. If they aren't complying, do not hesitate to file a complaint against them. They are totally something else...

Re: AMEX Charge Off Deleted - Equifax

Congratulations on getting it deleted. I am still waiting to hear back from EQ. They seem to be taking forever. They received request on 3/28. When i asked TU to delete my charge off early, they were able to do it within an day or two.

Re: AMEX Charge Off Deleted - Equifax

Thanks guys Im glad I was able to share my experience so it may be a guide to whoever finds theirself in my position. And @mongstradamus im really not surprised ur getting the BS from EQ. Just give them some extra time cos ya know they are notorious for being the slowest CRA... im positive they would eventually follow the footsteps of the others and make an early deletion for ya.

I didn't know a CRA would delete a charge off early! What in heavens did you say in your letter for this to happen? Thanks
