It depends on relationship between the creditor correcting the error and the credit reporting agency. It can be done within one day. This is different than how long it takes the lender to update their information from the credit reporting agency. You can tell the bank or lender that you are going to borrow from that you just corrected something. Ask them if they are able to do rescoring. Some can and some can't. They have to have a membership and pay money to the credit bureaus or to some organization in order to do it. Anyway, if they can rescore you, they put in the request, and your score will update in 72 hours.
So that credit card swiping machines can read them.
Yes, you can always get a credit score since it is simply an algorithm that is run against a "snap-shot" of your credit report. Disputes don't show up on your credit report - only the results so the resulting score won't be affected by the dispute until after it has been resolved.
When a credit card is swiped through a reader, pulses of current are generated in the coils and read the electromagnets on the magnetic strip of the credit card.
Magnet's ruin credit card's smarts! the reason why is just because. there is nothing else to it!

No the collection will not be removed from the credit report. They will show it paid in full.
The procedure is the same as getting any other inaccurate or expired information, removed. Write a letter to the credit bureaus, dispute the judgment and request that your file be corrected. Send proof of your identity, address and social security number and request a complete credit report be sent to you when they have corrected the old entry. Good luck!
If it's not actually true, then you can dispute it with the reporting agency. If it is true, then you don't "get it removed." It will be removed after a certain amount of time has elapsed.
It depends on what you mean. If you have erroneous information on your credit report, contact the credit reporting agency and tell them you want to file a dispute. If you're referring to a negative credit account or report that is in fact accurate, you usually cannot have that removed. Entries on your credit report are removed automatically after 7-10 years depending on what it is.
A person with bad credit could find a home loan by approaching companies that specialise in offering such products. These companies typically charge a far higher rate of interest on that home loan to reflect the additional risks that these loans entail. Alternatively someone could try to improve their credit record. They can access their credit record and check for old accounts which have not been closed or any mistakes which can be corrected by contacting the credit agency. Credit records can be improved by demonstrating an ability to manage credit correctly. An understanding of the factors considered by the credit agencies can help to improve their ratings.
There is no formula for a credit score. Once you do have the negative items removed the scores will start to improve, but no one can tell you by how much.
Only the credit bureaus the collection agency can remove a collection from your credit report. The collection agency won't do it now since it is paid and they have no reason to. You can dispute it to the credit bureaus and ask for verification on the account. They will have 30 days to verify the items or it must be removed from your credit report.
Addresses are kept on credit reports as a record of residence. These are not your primary address, and can not be removed. If it is incorrect or has never been your address, then you can have it removed by contacting the credit reporting agency. So, if you have in fact lived at one of the addresses, it is on your credit report to stay.
Yes (if it is a dispute on an item on your credit report). Either your score will improve because you corrected a negative error, or it will not change because no correction was deemed appropriate and nothing will change.
pay the collection agency, then check what their report is about you, if not good threaten to get a attorney and bring suit
Hard to say. Disputing the collection after you pay off the creditor could still come back as 'verified' from the credit bureaus simply because the collection did happen. If the collection agency does not respond to the credit bureau's query, then the entry will be removed.
Yes you should see some movement in your score.
