RIP Portfolio Recovery Associates - I beat them!!!

I'm so excited that today, al three credit bureaus deleted the entry from Portfolio Recovery. It took me a couple letters, a complaint to BBB and a very long email to their vice-president. But two days after that email.... everything is gone!!!!

 

So exciting! This is my first win!

Thanks!

I just couldn't believe it when I saw it. Still no reply from them to that email but I'm sure it was that email that made them delete the entry. Exciting!

Be sure to keep all of the correspondence, particularly if there was a dispute with the CRA.

 

Deletion of a collection can occur either by voluntary deletion by the debt collector or by deletion by the CRA as the outcome of a dispute.

It is often followed by a new collection popping up from another debt collector.

It may then become an issue whether any new reporting is proper, which will be based on how the deletion occured.

Would you mind passing along the email address? I'm looking to do that myself!
