Hmm... I need to find out myself. I don't know what is the answer to your question. I'll do some Googling and get back to you if I find an good answer. You should email the people at Lending Tree as they probably can answer it..

I somewhat agree with what delilah said. If you do too many, you may get blanket verification...that is...they verify everything becasue they are just tired or for whatever reason. BUT...you can get blanket deletions as well. When I disputed several things at one 11-13), most of them were deleted. When I did 1 r 2, they were verified. Now, I know this could have just been ccoincidence, so...use your judgement...

I have only been doing this for about 2 months, so I would not feel comfortable giving you advice. But I will tell you what I have done so far..

1. I got seperate reports from all three CRA'S..

2. I got organized, making a list of what I was going to dispute and how..

3. I first disputed everything that didnt say included in bankruptcy as "not mine". I am starting to see some results I have gotten 3 of the 5 collection accounts deleted of my EQ report. Still waiting on the other two..

As far as how many to dispute. On my first round of disputes I disputed between 6 - 12 items at once..

I hope this helps...... Oh yea my chapter 7 was discharged in oct. 2002.....

Handr.

When you deleted 6-12, did you put them all as "not-mine"or did you have a combination of other reasons. The reason I'm asking is because all of mine on my letter are stated as "I have never done business with the company". And also, did you type up your own letter or did you just use one of the sample letters on the site?.

Thanks!!.

Denise..

THANKS TO EVERYONE!!!! I have a long road in front of me!!! I will get it done though!!!.

Denise..

I did not get 6- 12 deletions, I was saying that is how may I dsputed at one time. I have done all of my disputes on-line. Just check the box "not mine"...

One more thing, I started with the oldest accounts on my reports...

Nothing so powerful as a few well told lies to get done whatever our hearts desire or tickles our fancy. Never mind what the cosequences might actually turn out to be somewhere down the road. Lets all just do things the easy way. Don't take much imagination to come up wth a new lie if the old one didn't work...

Can someone help me with the exact procedure of how to go about disputing my accounts?.

****Here is the deal!! Can anyone tell me if this letter is ok? This is everything that is bad on my credit report. (Alot huh?) THe 2 Onyx ones should have been included in my bankruptcy/the OSI collection and key credit services as well!!! They are all still showing as charged off/the Onxy one is showing up as involuntary reposession. I filed bk in May 2000 and they conveniently came and took it in June 2000-My bk was discharged in August 2000. I thought creditors couldn't touch your property after you filed bankruptcy or try and collect on accounts?.

I would appreciate any feedbackSorry it is so long!!!.

Thanks in advance..

Well, I am as green as a gourd and about as dumb as a fencepost when it comes to credit bureus. I rarely ever have anything to do with them..

Be that as it may, your claims that you never opened any accouts nor did any business with those collection agencies isn't going to get you anywhere in my opinon..

After all, who is going to waltz into a collection agency and open up a new account with them. Even a complete moron wouldn't do that. You probably would if you were a creditor and wanted them to collect debts for you but then you wouldn't be disputing them off your credit bureau if that were the case, now would you?.

And although I hate to sound rude but what good is all that yik-yak at the bottom going to do you? Especially after you just told them you never opened an account with a collecion agency..

Might think about changing those statements and maybe getting rid of most if not all of the yik-yak at the bottom...

Definately the way I would approach it. Nice job handr...

Any reason you aren't doing the dispute online? Have you gotten all old addresses off your CR? If you are going to write to the CRAs I would make it much simpler. Good luck...

Thanks for your replyI think I will do it onlinethe process seems alot more simpler than writing them a letter..
