I disputed 8 out of 10 hards, and a ton of softs on my report. I disputed a few softs and 3 out of 5 hards on my husbands. Can't wait to see what happens!!
How long before people saw any deletions on their reports?? I noticed that some softs came off for people within hours, but that can't be the norm. I keep checking mine, of course it hasn't even been 24 hours yet. I'd love to see a few hards come off. I disputed the softs too, but don't really care about those. I didn't dispute any hards or softs that correspond w/ any of my current accounts though!!
To dispute hard inq. go to: https://www.experian.com/consumer/cac/15_CreditHistoryViewedByOthersInvestigation.jsp?itemId=0 To dispute soft inq. go to: https://www.experian.com/consumer/cac/15_CreditHistoryViewedByYouInvestigation.jsp?itemId=0 Make sure you have two windows opened and you are logged in twice into your report and you are on the page which shows your inquiry. And don't forget to change last number from 0 to 1 to 2 to 3 etc... It depends how many inquiry you have and want to dispute. I hope this helps.
New at this...is there a confirmation of some sort to validate that this 'TRICK' was accepted?All I get was that 'ERROR CODE...'
Same way ??? NOPE... Just on the phone if they want to take your dispute...or write them letter...but there is no guarantee...
I'm trying this for the first time on all 12 of my hard inquiries. We'll see what kind of results I get... Thanks Doc!
YOU HAVE TO BE SIGNED INTO EXPERIAN FOR IT TO WORK... Use "RIGHT" mouse click...copy link location if you can...
Thanks george. I was signed in and could get to my first inquiry which is the 0. But when I changed it to get to the others I didn't work.
Don't make this so hard. Go back to Doc's original post (in this thread) and do EXACTLY what he said to do. Open up a second brwoser that is logged in to CE, then just click on the links he's already provided. He couldn't have made it any simpler. I just used it the other day and it worked just fine.
Bailey, I can't remember exactly, but I had the same problem last week when I tried. It goes something like this... After you change the number at the end of the url string and hit enter, it should give you a screen requesting what the reason is, etc. After hitting submit (or whatever the button was) you should get another screen. There are two ways to go from this screen, one will give you the error you talked about, the other will show you a page showing your disputed inquiries. After I see the latter page I copy and past the url in the address box and change the number for the next one. Also, there was a thread earlier that warned against disputing inquiries that gave you accounts as it put some of those accounts into fraud status and closed them, so be careful what you dispute! Hope that helps. Rereading it makes it look clear as mud...but without re-doing it I can't give you much more. Good luck!
