This happens occasionally either by accident or a creditor has eventually verified a particular item. This is what is known as a ‘soft delete’. The FCRA (Fair Credit Reporting Agency) has made it much more difficult for a creditor to replace an item once it has been removed. Nitro Credit Services will re-challenge the item with the full force of the prior removal in our favor.
Yes, you are given the right under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), including the right to challenge inaccurate, misleading and obsolete items appearing on your credit report. Nitro Credit Services uses every venue available to you under the law to help you assert these rights.
Disputing items on your credit report is your legal right (see the Fair Credit Reporting Act). When you use Nitro Credit Services to help repair your credit, we are abiding by and using all federal and regional laws regulating third party credit repair assistance.
Credit scoring is based on many factors that may include:
- Amount of available credit
- Payment history
- Recent requests for credit
- Amount of credit currently being used
- Length of credit history
Under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, credit scoring may not use gender, marital status, national origin, race, or religion as factors.
Negative credit listings are deleted from peoples’ credit reports each and every day!
Nitro Credit Services is hard at work every day challenging damaging and questionable credit entries on behalf of its clients. Utilizing proven and absolutely legal methods, Nitro Credit Services is a professional organization working for you and your credit.
When we delete a negative credit report listing, the actual debt remains. You still owe the same amount of money that you owed to begin with. If you don’t pay the debt, the creditor or collection agency could always report the item again. So removing the listing without addressing the debt is only a temporary solution.
Once we’ve received your credit reports, we will analyze your credit history to identify items that are responsible for bringing your credit score down. Then we will draft letters to dispute these negative items on your behalf. Although we encourage consumers to dispute their own credit if they have the time and knowledge to do so it is important to note that, according to federal law, the credit bureaus can ignore your dispute under a variety of conditions. In our experience, a large part of dispute letters sent directly from consumers are rejected for one reason or another. Nitro Credit Services letters are expertly designed such that credit bureaus will accept the dispute and conduct an investigation.
A disputed credit listing must be verified as accurate for it to remain on the credit report. If the credit listing contains an error, the credit bureau may simply correct the item. Quite often they are unable to verify because the creditor no longer possesses the necessary information or they do not put forth the effort to verify it. Furthermore, the investigation must be completed within 30 days or the listing must be removed. For these reasons, properly disputed credit listings are removed from your credit report with remarkable frequency.
At the conclusion of the credit bureau’s investigation, a new copy of the credit report is sent to you along with any deletions or improvements. You then provide us with a copy of the new credit report and the cycle repeats itself at strategic intervals.
Each time an investigation is initiated, the odds of receiving a particular deletion increases.
Everyone wants you to see results immediately. Although everyone’s credit history is different, most people will see progress within the first 45 days of our service. The majority of time is spent waiting for the credit bureaus to respond to requests. We take great effort in getting our disputes to the bureaus as fast as possible. As a reference, the average person with 7-10 inaccurate, misleading or obsolete items on each credit report should be prepared for about a 6 month commitment, depending on your credit situation.
By law, no company can guarantee that they can have items removed from your credit reports, but we stand behind our services and, if you feel you do not see results, we will evaluate your account and you will receive a portion of your money back if appropriate progress with your case has not been made. Please refer to our Terms of Use and Warranty for more details.
