Hi everyone! I bombarded First Credit Services in NJ a bunch of GWs after I paid them and they refused to report that I paid after months; this was in regards to a stupid $251 Retro Gym collection on my TU report which was being reported as collection. They kept hanging up on me, etc. I contacted Consumer Financial Protection Bureau about my problem and filed a dispute. A couple days later I sent a certified dispute letter to TU. Well lo and behold TU got back to be stating "this account is not listed on your credit report".. I then updated my TU fako and today it gave me +16 points and is listing 0 accounts in collections. I have one bad account to go :-)
