The three major credit reporting agencies are: transunion experience equifax You can just go to their web sites and request a credit report (usually free or very cheap) and once you get it, just write corrections right on the report ... then send it back to them with a letter saying to remove incorrect reporting asap. If they can't prove that what they're reporting is 100% correct, they can't report it anymore. Usually, the agencies are so lazy that they'll take off anything you want them to, just to avoid them having to research it. They will make these changes usually within 1-2 weeks. My personal experience was closer to 1 week. Good luck!

How do you get the collector to respond to your dispute?
The best way that I have found to do this is to send every letter registered mail so that they have to sign for the letter. This way you have proof that they have received it. The collector has to investigate the dispute within 30 days of receiving your letter, if not they are in violation of the fair debt collection practices act and you can sue them. If they fail to respond, send a letter directly to the credit reporting agency (i.e. Trans Union, Experian, and Equifax) along with copies of the proof that they received your dispute letters. They should directly remove the item from your credit report.

Yes and no. What the original credit agency should be reporting is that the debt was transferred to a new collector.

So, if you have in fact lived at one of the addresses, it is on your credit report to stay.

Is it possible for a collection agency to remove the Sent to Collection Agency on your credit report?
Yes. There is no federal or state law which compels or requires credit reporting. It is totally voluntary. There are costs for creditors to place data on credit report and to update that data. While it is possible, and all consumers should certainly attempt to have collection accounts removed, you also need to be aware that it is unlikely.
