This is a valuable thread, so I might as well bump it. I paid off two cards from an A0R and disputed them online shortly thereafter with each bureau as "paid in full." The other account was a Chase account that I had had some issues with -- they ended up charging me finance charges during part of my last month, and while I couldn't get them entirely reversed, they did credit half of them back.. and that was the last transaction that posted to the account before I closed it. The disputes came back with "new information" that the account was "paid after charge off/collection" (dropping my creditkarma score by 100 points!), so I called Chase, got them to submit a dispute themselves, and so far Experian and Equ!fax have corrected the reports, but Transunion is lagging (by a couple days, already). The annoying thing is that I can't seem to initiate a new online dispute with TU while the old one is still viewable -- clicking any link to submit a new dispute just takes me to the results of the old one. |
