Nope...can't be done. The credit report MUST list accurately your history. We live with the history we make. BK is a matter of public court record and that will not change either....
You can't. A valid entry for a dismissed chapter 13 bankruptcy will remain on a credit report for seven years from the date of dismissal.
Yes. I tried to remove a dismissed bankruptcy from my credit report. All agencys were contacted and so was the FTC. They said they had a legal right to keep the Bankruptcy dismissal information on the bureaus files.
You can write them or call and request that your bankruptcy be removed. They do not have to remove it, however. It is generally the amount of time that it falls off your credit or is not considered when being looked at for credit.
Get an "official" copy of your bankruptcy documents indicating the date that the Bankruptcy was dismissed. Send the official copies to each of the credit bureaus that are reporting the information and request that they update their files accordingly and to forward to you an updated copy of your credit report. The key word here is "request". do not demand, threaten or utilize any form of aggression. just be simple, polite and to the pint with your request This should solve the problem. Both Experian and Transunion remove a dismissed Chapter 13 bankruptcy after 7 years. Equifax's policy is to keep it on the credit report for 10 years. Has anyone been able to successfully request Equifax to remove this item after 7 years? While it's true that the negative impact of a dismissed bankruptcy filing is diluted with age, any reference to "bankruptcy" still casts a dark shadow on a credit report no matter how long ago it was filed.
Filing bankruptcy does not remove a charge off report from a credit card on your credit report. It just adds bankruptcy to your credit report.
The only way to remove a bankruptcy from your credit report is to dispute it to the credit bureaus. The credit bureaus have 30 days under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, to verify your bankruptcy withe the court that filed it or it must be removed from your credit report.
No.

Yes you can remove a bankruptcy from your credit report. You must dispute it to the credit bureaus using the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The credit bureaus have 30 days to verify the listing or it must be removed from your credit report. A bankruptcy should only be disputed if it is erroneous or inaccurate.
A dismissed bankruptcy cannot be discharged. Once a BK is dismissed it is no longer valid and creditors may resume collection action and/or repossession of property. The petitioner of the dismissed BK must wait the required amount of time before filing a new bankruptcy petition.
