    Pulled Equifax Bureau back in Oct. Score was 577. Disputed to old chargeoffs Sears and Circuit City at that time. Pulled Bureau in Dec and score was down to 548. I said okay that was fine because Hechts had fallen off due to the date of last activity being 7 years ago. Pulled Bureau last night score now is 530 ?? All of my other scores are rising like wildfire except for this EQuifax. Is it because I disputed the items and now the DATE REPORTED is showing 12/03. ??? Sears sold my account to Risk Management and they have a separate acct # for my sears acct how can that be ?? And sears charged this account off in 1997 how is it that if they sold it to a collection agency the collection agency can show a date of last activity as 11/1998. I have not paid these accts since 1996 when I was a freshman in college. And now both Sears and Ciruit City are showing open 120 days past due instead of charged off. The other bureaus are fine it is just this one that keeps getting worse . Does calling to dispute the date of last activity work or should I write a letter as well as call ??..NO MORE ONLINE Disputing for me !!!

    Its called reaging, its illegal, and RMA is notorious for it. Have you sent validation to them?

    This is an absolute score killer. Have you requested procedures from EQ?

    I wouldn't call. Its definitely time for CMRRR letters. You need to build a papertrail.

    Sears Ciruit City & RMA should not even be on your reports period!
    The 7 years were up on or before 12-31-2003.

    Especially on items that are reporting well beyond the 7 year reporting period.
