Credit Reporting
When creditors report debts to a credit reporting bureaus, the
information must be accurate. If you review your credit reports
and find information that is inaccurate, you have the right to
dispute the false information by writing a letter to the credit
reporting bureau. You should send the dispute letter via
certified mail. When the bureau receives your dispute, they must
forward information regarding your dispute to the creditor who
reported the debt to the bureau. Both the bureau and the
creditor, also called a furnisher, have a duty to conduct a reasonable
investigation regarding your dispute. The sad truth is that
usually, despite your dispute, the inaccurate information will
remain on your credit report. Sometimes it is necessary
to file a law suit to get the information corrected. Like
