So hopefully that will be falling off shortly.I will only have the apartment collection on TU and a bunch of inquiries from "free" auto insurance quotes on line back in November 2001. I couldn't have done it without this board! I've been studying for hours to get my reports in order and I owe many of the regulars here a heart felt thank you!
The apt collection remains on TU so I sent a validation request this morning. Even if they can validate it will be coming off in September of this year. I'll keep at them and see if I can get a few inquiries knocked off.
