Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas
Credit Card Co.
My daughter has been having trouble a credit card
company that has financed her student loan. She is
paying monthly through on-line auto deduction. They
claim she missed a payment several months ago,
because a $1300 payment that was sent in was never
recorded. She is sending a copy of the canceled check,
etc. How does she get this off her credit report. It has
been a nightmare. She has spoken to them twice
about this matter. Each time customer service has
hung up on her.

Re: Credit Card Co.
Have her contact one of the three credit reporting agencies, for example Equifax, or TRW.
She should get a copy of her report and then dispute the erranrous entry. She can provide them with all the necessary information to make their investigation easier and they should have an answer withing 30 days.
Try contacting the company and speaking with a manager and file a complaint regarding their staff's inappropriate and unprofessional behavior.
