When did the repo occur?
You say about 4 years ago is when you bought it, which would be about 2005, but you say it shows as a write off on a 2003 report.
The account should remain 7 - 7 1/2 years from DOFD, which is the date the account went delinquent and was never caught up.
If you have an EQ report from EQ, it should show DOFD. If you have a EX or TU report directly from them, it should show a date of removal.
Are the reporting twice or just changed the initial account to show something different?
If you haven't already, get your free annual reports to get information regarding the DOFD being reported.
Has the SOL for this passed or can you PIF?
Is there a removal date or DOFD listed?
