Re: Need some help and suggestions

Not directly related to your post, but I see somthing that raises questions in my mind.

On most of these collection accounts, you show a time period of as little as 2-3 months from the DOFD to debt collector assingment of collection authorty, and all within about 6 months.

That is an unusually quick trigger hand in the part of the OC.  Usually they will wait at least three months before closing an account and even doing a charge-off.

Then collection referral follows a month or two later.

So, those DOFDs on the OC accounts look a bit fishy to me.  Are you sure of them?

They are important, because CRA drop off dates for collectons, and maybe your SOL, are usually determined based on your DOFD.

Don't wait on the medical debt...go ahead and start the HIPAA process now because it's likely to take some time. I put it off and am now wishing I'd started a lot sooner.

 

I have 3 medical collections...all with the same CA. I sent the pre-HIPAA letter to both EX & TU on 2 of them (the 3rd is actually for a dentist and I wasn't sure it was covered under HIPAA). Anyway, TU deleted both of them within a week of receiving my letter. I'm still waiting to hear back from EX. I sent out a pre-HIPAA for the 3rd (dental) a few days ago and am hoping for a deletion for it as well, since it is only reporting to TU.

 

Good luck...

Re: Need some help and suggestions

My old account was juice but lost my password. I have had some good news and bad news.  Good news first I had luck gw Insight for the credit protection collections and got it removed, afni agreed to pfd which helped out alot. Now to the bad news my last two medical bills hit my credit report  so i got rid of two utility bills in exchange for two more medical. My credit score has gone up 40 points from 525 to 565 I still have four unsecured credit cards my utilization is 81%. I will pay all 4 off withen 10% this upcoming week which should help out alot... Any expert have any other opinions on how i can tackle the medical bills or other ideas?
