:cool:If you discuss an old bill that may have had the statute run out or they don't have the original documentation it updates to a new debt. Do a letter demanding they supply you with proof of the debt from the original creditor. MOst of them don't have them because they buy old debts. They have to give you proof within 30 days you have to send your letter certified mail return receipt requested. If they can not prove it's your debt within the 30 days and do not respond send a copy of the green card and your letter to each credit bureau and they have to remove them.
Hope this helps.:D


[LEFT]There are multiple flaws in this analogy.

The thing is, a delinquent item won't just go off your credit report if a CA/creditor fails to validate it. You will need to prove that the debt is not yours to begin with to have it taken off your report. The lack of proof on part of the CA is not equal to sufficient proof that the debt is not yours. Maybe the CA did a shoddy job and didn't pick up the paper work/file went missing. In short, it wouldn't work to get derogatory items off your report unless you can successfully dispute their validity.

Moreover, the SoL on debts for different states are not the same as the SoL for credit report items. State SoLs go as low as 3 to 4 years while the reporting SoL stands at a flat 7 years. So again, unless you can successfully dispute the validity of the debt, derogatory items and remarks won't go off your credit report for 7 years.

don't start a thread loaded with stupidity.one stupid point is that just by discussing a debt does nothing.in some states even a payment won't re-start the SOL clock.so to the idiot who won't register again don't start threads loaded with stupidity and bad info.
