collection deleted, original creditor still listed

Hello all,

 

I was having a look at my reports and wondering: I have 2 collections that were deleted. However, the original negative tradeline by the OC  (Chase and Radiochack) before it got sent to the CA is still there. How do I get it gone? One of the collections I disputed through Equifax and it gone (it's listed as a medical colRadioshack/CBNA) the other one is an old Chase CC acct sent to Midland (I asked for PFD but refused and it got deleted a couple of months after their refusal to PFD, I never disputed).

That alone would bring my derogatory accounts to 6/8 and 8/10.

Did the CA delete? 

 

Do you still owe for the debt? That's why the OC can still report.

Re: collection deleted, original creditor still listed

OC account reporting does not become excluded based on any of the credit report exclusion provisions of the FCRA.

The FCRA only requires exclusion of adverse items reported by the OC after certain periods of time, not the OC account.

 

If a reported collection is deleted by a debt collector, that does not require deletion of any other adverse reporting done by the OC, or of the OC account itself.

Re: collection deleted, original creditor still listed

Whitneyy,

 

Midland was collecting on behalf of Chase, I offered PFD, but instead got another settlement offer (I had been getting a few of those before I started rebuilding) which I assumed meant "no but pay this instead". A few months later I got a letter from Midland saying they were deleting, they never stated a reason. In my PFD, I clearly stated that I knew that the SOL were expired and that the best arrangement as this point would be to PFD for the interest of both parties.

 

CatLegal or whatever they call themselves was/is collecting for Radioshack/CBNA, I asked the credit bureau (equifax) to investigate on y behalf because I cannot find any contact/address info for them. I just received an email letting me know that Equifax deleted after investigation.

 

So I am not sure how to go about getting the Chase and the Radioshack tradeline deleted. 

 

Robert,

 

I know the OC's reporting is separate from the CA's reporting and do not have to  be deleted even if the CA decides to delete which is the reason I am asking what strategy I can use to have them gone.

What Robert basically said is there isn't a valid reason to dispute/remove the OC account if they are reporting correctly.  The CA may have deleted their TL for whatever reason but that doesn't mean that there is grounds for the OC to do so.

+1.   It's accurate reporting, so a dispute would be invalid.   You could attempt GW removal.
