removing a consumer statement

[Anonymous]

I have a statement on my credit report explaing about a charge-off that I was the co-signer on. Now that the charge-off is coming off my reports this month I certainly don't want that statement there about it.

How do I take it off?  Just dispute whichever report it is on?  Seems I would have to put something there to update the statement.  Could I just write "delete statement"?

I did a report update at TC and it had several things updated.  The charge-off from Ford that I co-signed for came off so it was marked as a change and it also marked as a change that the consumer statement was gone.

That's a relief.  I am about to see about refinancing my mortgage to a lower rate and I didn't want that statement hanging out there explaining the Ford charge-off if the charge-off wasn't even on the report anymore.
