Any luck getting PAID medical bills off before July change ??

I had a medical bill with Novant Health that went to Medicredit. Both agreed it would be deleted once paid. Equifax keeps adding it on as a new collection. It is on EF 3 times, and once for TU and EX. Disputes keep getting "Information verified accurate". Any suggestions on how to delete as paying did not increase score.

@Samy13, I will private message you the direct contact for EX's and TU's Executive Escalations Team; which both were life-savers for me. EQ on the other hand refused to take any positive action. But by law, I believe they will have to remove the adverse item in July 2022. Best wishes with your removal efforts . . . please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

You keep disputing and each time it affects your score. Disputes are for inaccurate info only. Go to the med provider and ask if you pay them directly will they recall the CA. Otherwise no more disputes. Wait till July.
