I have a crazy question about getting an Early Exclusion on an old debt.
I had a Vehicle Charge-Off years ago and on my credit reports it shows this will fall off December 2019.
I have seen numerous times that Transunion will do EE 6 months in advance usually and July (Few days from now) it will be 6 months.
So here is the crazy question....Do I need to wait until July for this to be exact 6 months or could I call today and try to have it removed?
You can call today and ask. The beauty of asking for a EE is you can call until you get someone that will remove it, although I don't think you will have any issues.
Sorry for the dumb question but thanks for the info!
Now what about EX...Anyone ever seen them do a EE earlier than 3 months?
Definitely agree here!
My rebuilding journey is as close to the end as it can be, down to a couple lates. Everything else from my past has been cleaned up through constant contact and follow up.
For Early Exclusions, do as was mentioned. Hit the phone lines and call. Worst case is you get a no and then try back in a week or two.
EQ and Experian are a bit more of a pain so play that one with caution as I feel they take steps to make your life more difficult sometimes.
*UPDATE*
I made the call to Transunion, asked for a supervisor, explained what I was trying to do and within 2 minutes they deleted it with no issues!!
Now I just wish Experian would do the same.

Not really, though I'm sure there are anectdotal stories around
Also be aware that a few of us have had issues with EEs and EX. Apparently they have been automagically removing at 3mos for a number of people (their "reporting until" date has three months built in in a number of cases).
