I was just wondering if anyone had dealt with removing an account from your Credit Report's from this agency. Do they fold or put up a fight? Just curious.... I have to deal with them on a pennys account.They are both reporting the same account at the same time.Can they do that? THANKS .....
They put up a fight. I am going through the validation process right now with them and I have several violations against them right now. They didn't even respond to my request and they verified 2 times the incorrect info. We'll see how it goes....
The very same thing happened to me when Monogram Bank acquired JCPenney acct last year. After some letter writing & contacting JC Penney corporate office,we were able to get the secondary account deleted. Sister Girl
Question: Arrow is reporting that the amount owed is $469 while pennys is reporting $249 . I don't owe any money to either one of them,but can I make them remove the arrow account because they reported incorrect info or should i request $1000 for reporting incorrect info.......
Make both of them validate the debt. Sample letters are located here: http://consumers.creditnet.com/straighttalk/board/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=25
I'm also dealing with Arrow Financial for my husband. They don't validate anything...I'm on my 3rd attempt to find out what the heck they claim he owe's them for. They sent him a settlement letter and that's the only contact he's ever had with him. Hope this helps.
thats good that they don't validate.If they don't validate,then i can get it removed....YEHHHHHH Sorry,I have been on a credit repair roll today....lol
Lynn - I am also dealing with Arrow - they got their validation (signed for) on Feb. 15th and to this day I have'nt heard anything - I will be marching downtown to the post office in the morning to send them their Estoppel. Hopefully they go away nicely, and it seems that way so far. Details: Original Creditor - A.F.S. Assignee of Metris (honestly have no freakin clue who they are) Date Opened - 6/01 Balance - $899.00 I figure if the account is that recent they should be able to validate if it's mine - but I have no idea who "A.F.S. Assignee of Metris" is and apparently they have blemished my CR in error and they had better un-blemish it quickly because they have no idea that I am a CREDITNETTER and will go to whatever extremes to get BS removed from my CR because it's my life. I love this board and all of you Creditnetters out there :~)

One and the same I believe. I too am dealing with those grubby dang people. They don't seem to be too willing to do a darn thing except ask for $$$.
