Information is on your credit bureau for 6-7 years. If you are requesting information to be removed, the credit bureau needs to investigate into the matter. The consumer should check with the merchant to see in fact the payment history is correct. Also be aware on most credit cards the consumer has within 30 days after the statement date to report any errors
