topic Disputed items are coming back as 'validated' please help! in Rebuilding Your Credit https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Rebuilding-Your-Credit/Disputed-items-are-coming-back-as-validated-please-help/m-p/271834#M11634 This is my first time posting with this forum but I have read many messages and they have all been helpful. I recently disputed two accounts with the three credit bureaus that were listing a late payment (one from 6 months ago and another from almost three years ago). Both of these were wrong and when I sent the dispute letters to the bureaus they came back with "this information was validated". What do I do now? I don't know how to fix this. How could they have 'validated' something that was wrong? Any advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated!!!

I would get in touch with the CCC and show them that you paid on time via a cancelled check, bank statement, etc.</DIV> Mon, 23 Jun 2008 19:32:00 GMT https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Rebuilding-Your-Credit/Disputed-items-are-coming-back-as-validated-please-help/m-p/271859#M11640 llecs 2008-06-23T19:32:00Z
