We just hosted a credit education class yesterday for our mortgage broker customers. Of course we sold some of our products during the webinar but it mainly included case studies of files that we have processed and performed corrections at the bureaus with before and afters of the consumer's FICO scores.
There was one case that we included that was specifically removing a collection from a customer's file because the CA had provided a letter of deletion.

Take a look at the free webinar to get an idea of what types of changes could occur when making correction but keep in mind that these were items changed through mortgage brokers and rapid dispute services. Look for the webinar library on the bottom right hand corner of the home page.
