CFPB SUCCESS, HOW LONG?

I filed a complaint with the CFPB about a month ago. The acct in question was a ambulance bill from late 2010 that I had no knowledge of. I had attempted to dispute the acct about 4 times with no luck. Always the same response. "We have investigated the acct and find that it belongs to you". 2 days ago I received an email stating that the collection co. has responded to the complaint. I logged into my CFPB acct and was pleasantly suprised to read that "due to my filing the complaint with the CFPB in a formal manner, my acct has been coded for deletion from my credit report ". I am so greatful for these boards and all the info I have gathered to benefit my financial situation. My question is, has anyone had similar success and if so how long did it actually take for it to be deleted?

I've had success with getting a collection removed and it came off in about a week. YEMV.
