Another question

[Anonymous]

From what I understand negative stuff starts to fall off after seven years from "Date of Last Activity".  As you can see below I do have a "Date of last activity" and a "Date of last payment" and a "Status as of " date. Which one should I be concerned with in regards of it falling off in seven years? Should I dispute this or leave it alone, it’s a repossession. How should I dispute this, what type of letter? Below is how my reports look, it's a repossession. THANKS GUYS!!

What report is this from?

The CRTP goes from DOFD. EQ uses DOLA.

You will need a report directly from the CRA, not a 3rd party like TC or myFICO, to get the actual dates. Or you can call the CRA and ask for it, just make sure they know you aren't disputing.

Thanks for the wuick response.

I got all three of my reports and scores from myFICO.

Who do you recommend I use to get all three reports from?

Should I dispute this?

If you haven't already gotten your free annual reports in the last 12 months, I would get those. They have much more detailed information, as they are not just a "report" they are your full credit disclosures, coming directly from the CRA.

Nope I haven't, I will get those.

Thank you

Thanks sidewinder, they are much more detailed.

Plus the above repo has an estimated date of 1/2009 to fall off, woohoo!!! This just made my weekend.

My experian report says:

Does this mean it going to fall off on April 2009? I'm sure it does I just want to make sure I'm correct on this.

Thanks agian!

Yep. It will fall off in April. Looks like the DOFD was 4/2002. EX and TU CRs have the drop off date for all CAs and some OCs. EQ doesn't have this date and you could find info by calling them.
