Question about Transferred Accts on CRs

An old mortgage acct appears three times on my CR. It was sold/transferred from one company to another while it was delinquent. (It was eventually foreclosed and included in BK.)
 
I've been pretty successful in getting my reports cleaned up, but feel like I'm getting hit 3x for the same acct. (And the one thing I haven't been able to successfully dispute is the mortgage companies.)
 
I talked to the CRA and they said that it was reporting correctly, since the delinquencies were at different times with different companies.
 
Is that right and I'm just screwed? Or is there something I can do?

Re: Question about Transferred Accts on CRs

You have to look back over your records...do you mean you mortgage was sold...to three different mortgage companies???...and you defaulted on all three???....then he are reporting correctly...all you can do is....send them a GW letter..asking for removal of the lates...

Unfortunately....mortgage won't fall in the same boat as charge offs and collection...where only one OC..and one CA can report at the same time...if you actually had three different mortgage companies...and defaulted on all three...the are correct...

Re: Question about Transferred Accts on CRs

It was in default when they transferred it.See - here are two. It's the same account, we kept falling behind, catching up, falling behind, and so forth. Extended unemployment. It just doesn't seem right to be penalized twice for the same account.

Re: Question about Transferred Accts on CRs

I personally would contact the 1st bank and mention that since they no longer hold interest in the loan to please remove it from your credit report or at least remove the negative remarks.
 
The same thing happend to DH when Citi bought out PRM I went after PRM and they removed their TL all together.
