Well 8th time is a charm. A paid collection from equifax is buh-bye. Don't give up. Many collections require manual verification, and that costs the collection agency money (or the loss of a trade line) eventually, i am thinking. I click my heels, and say "Not Mine" 8 times...
I love to see a person rewarded for persistence!! Thanks for sharing this with us...I will not give up now! I had been thinking that after 2 or 3 tries it was hopeless.
Congratulations! Questions, questions, questions... Who was the creditor? Did you do anything besides dispute; ie validate, BBB, PFB, etc.? What interval did you use between disputes? Did you do anything different this last time? Thanks In Advance!
