DW had Aspire (Columbus B&T) on her report since opening it in 2005/2006. It was never CO'd, but she did have two 120+ days late, one 60 day, and two 30 days on this paid, closed account. Since beginning repair, I sent no fewer than a dozen GWs to remove the lates. They sent 3 responses in the past saying there was nothing they could do as it wasn't cause by their "error".
So I pulled her TC today and saw they were off EX and EQ. I ordered the FICO reports to confirm and her EX score increased 19 points and her EQ increased 27 points!! I'm sure TU will follow soon.
Last week I sent 4 GWs to Aspire and this would be the response to one of those 4. One of the GWs was sent to Aspire's president.
Edit to add.....Of the dozens and dozens and dozens of GWs sent, this was our first success story. I would read others' posts and cringe in jealousy. My faith has been restored.
6/27 - 2 days later:
UPDATE!!!! Late is fashionable for TU but DW's updated CR just changed to reflect the deletion of Aspire!! TU FICO up 17 points when comparing 6/25 and 6/27 reports. She's knocking at 700's door.
