First question I got is What are some other web sites similar to Lending tree? Thanks in advance for any comment. Second question of mine... I have searched threads for this but no real answer/stratgey.. |

That's a good question. I'm not sure what is the right answer. I'll do some research and get back to you if I bump into an decent answer. You should email the people at Lending Tree as they probably could assist you..

I have one that I'm getting ready to fire off a nasty letter to the CA... I received the initial letter fromt them, I sent validation before the 30 day time frame. 2 days after that time they reported the debt and listed it "No Status".. Shortly after about 1.6months to be exact they sent bogus validation.... My thing, wouldn't it be considered "Continued Collections by placing the "No Status" before validating???..
|
|
Just curious - since they validated, and it's <$100, have you thought about trying to pay for deletion?..
|
|
Yes, They refused my settlement offer for deletion (full payment) Since I am buying a house, I really want deletion! I may end up paying anyway.... but I am look for strategies on how to deal with this to get deletion.....
BTW.... I will pay it....but I do want deletions!.. |
|
Has it been a long time since you offered the settlement? If it has "aged" on their books for some time, they might rethink it? What about the SOL for your state, has it passed that? That might be a motivator as well?.
Just throwing out thoughts.. BTW who is the CA?.. |
|
The CA is IC systems.... it is for a dr. bill. I sent Dr. the WHYCHAT HIPAA letter and he hasn't signed for it yet (with full payment)..
|
|
I have an IC Systems listing on my reports, as well. They are the most stubborn jerks in the world. This is for a $178 doctor's bill from 1999..
Why pay it if they won't remove it?.. |
|
I have one as well...it was on Exp and TU. Exp deleted it last month and I am now in dispute w/ TU over it. Should be interesting! It's my last neg on TU. BTW it's a dentist's bill from 10/1996 for $196..

I am having the same problem. Also with IC SYSTEMS and I offered settlement. Still no word, that was last friday. Problem is I do not believe we owe this but to get it off report I offered settlement. It was a Verizon local service account. This one makes me so mad because Verizon was charging me for a service we couldn't even receive where we live. DSL lines are not available here yet...

Uniondiva - if it's a CA, I would DEF. get rid of it.. dispute the normal way, ask for procedures, sue. That's the route I would take....
|
|
I have a no status account. It may or may not be affecting my score on tu, BUT the description says ch 7 bk filed (even though I havent) and this is what creditors see. This is why I have been denied stuff when my tu is pulled, according to the reject letters. So, it DOES matter, even if it may not affect score...
|
|
I have disputed it, but you are right..... I should ask for procedures and sue CRA to get it removed!..
