Sent a PDF to the collection agency. Think they agreed as I caught them reporting shadow payments!

Re: Thank you all! Huge score boost

It seems some creditors will list false payments.  Unkown why, unless to change the DOLA which is irrelevant.  Now if they change the DOFD because of false payments, that's a huge issue.
