I paid an unpaid bill off to the original company. Not dealing with the collection agency. Can I request the CA be removed from my reports?
You can request the debt collector to delete their reported collection. Any deletion on their part would be totally voluntary.
The CRAs instruct debt collectors not to delete based on payment of the debt, as the CRAs want their credit reports to continue to contain as much prior history on consumers as possible.
