That sucks...sorry. 
 
Is the delete showing up on all 3 reports & that's all they gave ya?  Maybe it was pretty old & that's what it's worth?  Not sure...

I've just gotten back dispute results from EX. One collection was from 2001 and the other one was actually an OC that got deleted. My EQ score went up 8 points today though. EX is 639, EQ 667, and TU 655 (but i haven't ran the current score since i am waiting for disputes to go through)

LOL!

Gosh, there is a difference between the FAKO and FICO! I have never ran the FAKO...don't want to get bummed further if they are way lower!

Re: I'm bummed

Do you have other collections remaining?
 
If so, you are less likely to see an increase when one is removed, especially an older one.
 
Even without more points, your CR looks much better with less collections, if you were to have a manual review.

Re: I'm bummed

Agree with Sidewinder. If there are other collections remaining that are newer, then you didn't get any increase for the collection going away. The eight points was likely from the OC going away. FICO reads one collection at a time, the most recent one, as that is the one hurting at the time. HTH.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's the Midland that is hurting my score. Have to send them the DV.
