Help! I cant get this duplicate accout removed!!


Years ago I had a personal loan that was secured by an auto. After missed payments my auto was taken. The bank where the loan was taken out was community bank in Texas. Well, Texas State Bank took over all of our local community banks sonow my old charged off accounts reports under Community & Texas State bank.  The begining account numbers are the same but its obvious that Texas state bank tacked on 4 numbers ontoo the file when it was in put in their system. It shows same open date , same payment , amount same # of payments. Same begining balance. The amount past due differs from from 1,437 to 1,369.  It changes every time I dispute . Equifax changed it from 1,437 to 1,369 on 12/5/07 then changed it back on 12/10/07. Its been changed SEVERAL times. I have disputed several times through equifax & transunion & somehow they always verify it. Expeiran has it listed only once & the lady over the reporting at the bank said thats the company they report & was shocked that it had been disputed on other companies cause she said she was NEVER contacted! I read her my response letters from these disputes. One actually said the account was sold to Texas State bank & still showed a balance on both. lol Sorry so long. I really need advice!!!

look at you TU and EX CR   for will remain on CR untill  month/2211       EX uses DOLA
 
Make sure that you have hard copies that show both accounts with the dates.
 
Then if you have already filed a dispute with the CRAs.....send the CRAs a MOV  CMRRR
     
At the same time
 
You must have disputed before sending the OC (in this case both are reporting as an OC) so send the OC letter to both.  Use the address that is on your CR!
 
An OC  does not have to answer an OC letter unless it has been disputed & was verified......then they MUST!

Yes I did dispute with the CA's before the original creditor because to me iit was soo black & white that its the same account showing the same balance & past due amounts. I figured it would be easy to see & remove. I have sent OC a letter yet but I ve called both #'s & the 1st # connects me through a long series of being on hold to the same lady thats suppose to be the one reporting it & she had told me since she reports through experian that she couldnt do anything about it till I disputed through where it was incorrect I told her I had through equifax & she was shocked like she didnt believe me untill I read the report saying it was correct so she said dispute through transunion & they would have to contact her & she would verify its not correct & it would be corrected on all reports.  Well now she is on sick leave untill end of April & has a replacement trying to handle things. I have tried to correct this since September with no luck & Im getting in a time crunch because we intend to get a mortage in just a few months. I will send my info to the OC & see if anything changes. But yes transunion supposedly verified everything & they wanted me to send paperwork on BOTH loans to prove what I was saying. They couldnt understand I dont have paperwork for BOTh loans cause we only signed paperwork on 1 loan that is being reported 2 times!! lol Its kinda funny but really frustrating. Thanks for all your help & Ill try sending to both adresses.

Everything must be in writting!   An OC doesn't have to answer an OC letter unless you have disputed it with all CRAs that are reporting.
 
First you dispute   then after CRA answers the dispute   you send the OC letter to the OC  CMRRR!
