What to do if a creditor still says that you owe them after a cancellation of debt?

Ask the creditor to send you written verification of the debt including all of their documents after incurring the debt. If the cancellation of the debt is not indicated in their documents, then dispute the debt by providing your written notification of cancellation of the debt to the creditor and if unsuccessful, then dispute the debt with the credit bureaus who will initiate an investigation with the creditor and the credit bureau will usually repond to you in 30 days. If no response from the creditor then it will usually be deleted from your credit report. If the collection harassment continues then ignore it realizing that probably no legal action will be taken against you or you can contact an attorney to contact the creditor. Either pay the debt or file bankruptcy.

How do you get wrong information off your credit report?

Go to the website for the credit reporting bureau (the major ones are Equifax, Experian and TransUnion) that has the error. There will be a link to the form to request a check of the incorrect entry. The agency will send the form to the creditor and ask for a correction or confirmation that it is correct. If the creditor says it is correct, you can place an objection or your explanation why it is incorrect on your report. That will go out with the credit report whenever it is requested. I suggest making sure you have a proper objection before you do that. Consult a local lawyer.

Credit Report Agency says account accurate creditor wont provide you with accurate documentation What do you do to get it off your credit report?

Apparently the dispute may not been handled properly. Your next dispute letter should go to both the credit bureau and original creditor at the same time stating damages. There are sample letters available for you in good books but you must understand the dispute process first. Most consumers cause themselves more damage by not understanding the credit challenge process.
