I 've disputed this info with all three credit bureaus to no avail. -, Equifax and - is allowing - - - to omit payment history and other pertinent info from the - account which would clearly show that this debt arose in - not - and the true balance.


We agreed to settle the debt for $380.00. in - -. Notwithstanding our agreement, - - - is still reporting the debt as an open account with a balance. One credit bureau is reporting a Balance of $690.00 ; others are reporting a balance of $310.00. To add insult to injury, - - - is reporting that balance as a " late/ missed payment.
