Cris: It's just my personal opinion, but I this is what I would do in order.... 1. Work from oldest information to most current. 2. Work from satisfied debts to chargeoffs. 3. Work from small $ to large $ 4. Work collections to orginial creditors If you ask 100 people, you may get 100 answers, but I would recommend that you challenge 4 items each investigation, requesting a new investigation every two weeks. Don't forget to look at your Trans Union and Equifax reports also. If you have success having one tradeline removed from a report, include it on your next investigation with one of the other credit reporting agencies. Good luck, Keep the Faith, Bkev
Dispute dispute dispute...have you checked your TU or Equifax report(s)? With all that info on Experian there is probably some cleanup on Eq and TU also. Hope they screw up seriously with the validations and then sue them, settle for deletion of all negatives as LizardKing did. Otherwise keep on disputing. -Peace, Dave
