Does disputing something on your CR reflect negatively?

Does disputing something on your CR reflect negatively?  Trying to get CA's to reflect what creditors have reported accurately.  3 accounts paid in full and have ALL been updated to CA's but CA's haven't updated yet.  Why does it take so long?  They're telling me another 30-45 days from the date the creditor reported to CA...

Disputing can affect your FICO score negatively.  While the info is in dispute, the disputed TL info is not taken into account for FICO scoring, so if its an older account it could decrease your AAoA etc.  Crazy as it sounds, sometimes an old baddie can be helping your score more than it hurts.

OMG!  No way!  I'll just leave it alone and pray they increase the scores quickly.
