Question on reporting

[Anonymous]

I have a medical collection that is reporting. Disputed with CRA, came back verified. However, it's reporting as a joint account. Not sure if it matters but should I DV and if I do what should I ask for specifically about the way it's reported?

Here's the TL

A Dv request is not related to how it is being reported on your CR.  DV is for validation of the debt, both as to the amount and the creditor's confirmation of its validity.

The accuracy of credit reporting is addressed by filing a dispute under one of the two dispute processes under the FCRA.  Having done that, you have verification of the reporting.  That is not validation of the debt.

I have medical collections (Paid) showing as "joint" and "coborrower" depending on whose reporting.  TU deleted all.  EQ and EX won't budge.  Trying to get them removed via HIPAA and NO GO, yet.

There is no way a medical collection could be a "joint" or "coborrowing" situation.  Total B.S.

I hope you have more luck than I did.

(When I DV'd the CA reporting, they ignored me - many times).

Well, I sent a DV anyway. I had insurance at the time, and if this is what I think it is it should be paid. The joint threw me off because I can't for the life of me think of when I would've ever had a joint insurance claim or medical bill for anything.
