I am currently cleaning up a 2 collections, I am first starting with the OC, but these 2 CAs are listing inaccuracies on my CR. I wanted to know if I can dispute those the same way as a OC? Should I take my complaint to the BBB?
Any and all advice welcome!

Please list the collections (remove any identify information) and point out the inaccuracies.
I'm not sure I understand your advice, would you please clarify?

I want you to list the collection and then tell us what you think is inaccurate about it. Sometimes people think they way things are listed on the credit reports are inaccurate but the accounts are in fact reporting correctly. Or there is truly something wrong with the amoun of the collection,t or dates, etc. Your initial post is very vague, and lacks any details about the inaccuracies on your credit reports and we need specific information about the collection in order to try and help.

And what part of report are you disputing?
I'm disputing the inaccuracies from both accounts. The payments listed, dates, etc.... each CRA is reporting differnt ALL across the board. The collection agency has listed differnet information with each CRA. The CRA is to report accurate information. I have written them several times and they keep saying the information has been verified correct. I have contacted LVNV several times and they aren't responding with a DV.
I'll I can see from the information there is a few of the dates are a little off but not by much. If you feel they are all truly wrong, I suggest contacting your state attorneys general's office (especially if the CA isn't responding to a DV letter - you are sending everything certified, return receipt, right? So there's a paper trail?) about getting the CRAs to listen to you.
I'm sorry, but this is frustrating. There are more than just dates. The information is being reported wrong, I can see this, its very obvious. The bottom line is all 3 CRA have different information. I wasn't sure how to deal with this and who to report to, since the CRA isn't very helpful.
I'll ask someone else.....
