    I came across a link before in the archives to a site that listed the various creditors and which CRA they used.. whatever happened to them?

    From a couple of posts I saw he needed just a bit of financial help to keep the site up. If I remember right he was needing about $20 a month or so to keep the board up and nobody would help him so he had to shut it down.

    That is the way I saw it posted.

    thats a shame.. I have access to a few servers in a Qwest hosting center, maybe I should look into putting a service like that back up as it wouldn't cost me anything.

    I know Psych Doc compiled a table that listed areas of the country and creditors and who they pulled. He posted it on Motley Fool credit site a month or so ago. I think he got it from the site before it went under and did some updates to it recently.

    Hi, you can file that file here:

    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/whopulledmycredit/files/

    I don't know if Yahoo Groups limits the number of downloads, but if you run into some sort of block because so many others have downloaded the file within a short period, just try back in a few hours.

    This file requires Excel. The data is based upon the 1,700+ inquiries voluntarily reported by hundreds of consumers from 2000-2003.

    Hope it helps somebody! So that others might benefit, I'm going to post a notice of the file in a standalone thread as well.

    Doc

    Doc, for some reason I cannot even bring up yahoo groups to download or do anything with it. Some kind of total block on yahoo groups on my system and I can't figure out what is causing it.

    Would you please be so kind as to send me a copy?
