Recently received back my dispute status from Experian on a few old accounts. All the accounts have been closed for some time now, but when I ran my creditkeeper reports after the dispute findings, all but 1 of them have a "collection" or a "charge off" mark in the account history as of 8-2004!! Now there were no marks in the account history prior to this, at least not in the 2 previous years. Is this OK? My feeling is that it isn't, and I am sure it is having an impact. Anyone have any similar happenings? Is this legal? Thanks in advance, Steve-o TU-592 EXP-576 EQ-519 (EQ Sucks!)
