Update to Score

Can someone explain what exactly this means.  I got this update via Score Watch a couple of days ago.  Does this mean that my dispute was successful?  Do I need to worry about this account anymore?  Is this being deleted from my report?  Also, the "account closed at consumer's request" thing I am confused about.  Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.  This updating caused my Fico (EQ via Score Watch) to jump 10 points.

Re: Update to Score

Hopefully someone will chime in reg the TL.  only input I have is since it's showing as a cust dispute it's taken out of the scoring equation. Which May be why u see an increase in ur score. It's not being factored into the fico calculation.   and most lmortgage lenders will not appr mortgage with any open dispute comments.  


Starting Score: 503
Current Score: 667
Goal Score: 650

Re: Update to Score

Thanks for the reply.  What I am confused about is the closed statement at "my request".  I didn't request it be closed within my dispute, shrug.  Also, there were 2 other collections from this same company that I disputed along with this one, and those 2 remained the same.  In the update that EQ provided me it says that they are being reported correctly and gives me the company contact information. 

 

Do I need to worry about this particular one, so to speak?  Do I just leave it be?  Do I try and GW or PFD or whatever? 

 

I apologize for the many questions as I am new to MyFico and new to the credit rebuilding process.

 

Thanks in advance

Re: Update to Score

Why did you dispute the accounts in the first place?

Re: Update to Score

They were disputed due to the fact I had no recollection of these charges.  I think the official reason was debt not mine/did not incur or something like that.

Re: Update to Score

Have you sent a DV?

Re: Update to Score

I have not and did not, unfortunately, I didn't know about that before I got my annual credit report and started the dispute process.

Re: Update to Score

If it comes back as verified, send out a DV to those debts. Then you'll have an answer as to where those debts came from.
