    I think I read somewhere about requesting a creditor (probably with a closed account) to report the account to the CRAs as being perfect even though they may not have been. Any example letters, advice?

    Why would they, what's their incentive? I think if you owed a balance and agree to pay in return for a letter like that, stating "you were never late" that you can send to the CRA's, you may get it. But just asking a creditor to alter your correct history is probably a bit of a daunting task.

    I would dispute it with the CRA's as "never Late" and I would do it online so you don't need to carefully word a letter, the drop down bars and fill in the blanks are all you have to do.

    The issue is that these accounts were deleted on some reports, and remained on others but with a deletion of the neg info. I would like for the latter to be on all reports, if possible.

    Mmmm wouldn't we all :))

    I have the same situation and I imagine more than you and I are afflicted with one or more of the 3 CRA's simply deleting the account rather than make it a positive....prolly their vindication against the fact that they can no longer use it AGAINST you, they delete it so it has no POSITIVE value for you at all...the farging bastrages.
