Credit bureaus and the original creditors have the power to remove late payments. You can contact the original creditor that posted the late payment and ask for them to remove it. They will probably only do this if you have had a good payment history with them. You can also send dispute letters to each of the credit bureaus asking for verification on your negative listings. You can do this yourself or hire credit repair company to do it for you.
