    Hi all,

    I've been reading CreditNet for about 6 months. I feel like I'm starting to get the hang of it, but desperately want some advice :)

    Here's the general outline of the bad stuff on my Equifax:

    I've already cleaned up my previous addresses, etc.

    Citibank--Status R1 History: 1 Time 60 days late; 3 Times 90+ days late. Previous status: 12/01 - R5; 11/01 - R5; 10/01 - R4 Settlement Accepted on this account

    MBNA America--Status R9. Previous Payment HIstory: 1 time 30 days late; 1 time 60 days late; 3 times 90+ days late. Previous Status: 12/01 - R5; 10/01 - R4. "Charged Off Account Credit Card"

    Nextcard--Status R9. Previous Payment History: 1 time 30 days late; 1 time 60 days late: 3 times 90+ days late. Previous Status: 12/01 - R5; 10/01 - R4. "Account transferred or sold Charged Off Account"

    I recently disputed all of these accounts as not mine. Here are the responses from Equifax:

    Citibank: Equifax verified that this item belongs to you. Additional information has been provided from the original source regarding this item. See Enclosed Credit File."

    MBNA: Equifax has verified that this tiem has been reported correctly

    Nextcard: Equifax verified that this item belongs to you.

    There are no details about what was provided to verify that these accounts are mine, etc.

    What's my next step? Is there a really well-written letter out there somewhere requesting either the additional info or saying that since they haven't provided that info they should remove the items from my credit report?

    Please help!

    Thank you!
    Rhonda
