I know that you can write a dispute letter to the credit bureaus if they are reporting inaccurate information, but what if the information is correct but the account has already been paid? Is there any way you can get it removed before the date set for removal? Also my medical bills are in clear view to everyone. I thought that they were supposed to be marked "Med1" and only could be viewed by myself? Any suggestions on how to clear up my credit and have these items removed early and get my medical bills to be marked appropriately?

Without saying "insider trading," which connotes unlawful trades on nonpublic information, how do you call normal, lawful trades by directors and officers of publicly traded issuers?

My parents are buying a house for the first time, they paid for a surveyor (£300) to look at the property when they had their offer accepted (3mnths ago) now they are about to exchange contracts but their solicitors are telling them to pay another £300 for another survey, is this normal or are they trying to make extra cash?
The solicitor arranged the first survey.

I basically want to put it in an account that I can't touch, or something that I won't be tempted to.

I moved out of an apartment nearly two months ago. I took advice from a Renter's Rights website and had my landlord meet me at the apartment for a final walk-through. He was satisfied that the apartment was left in good condition and even said the place "looked great." I asked him to sign a "waiver" I typed saying that he agreed the apartment was left in satisfactory condition and that I am no longer responsible for the apartment after the lease expired. Now, his wife (joint landlord, who was not present at the final walk through) is threatening to sue for "damages" to the carpet in the apartment. Can she do this? Will the waiver her husband signed stand up in court if it goes that far? It's been nearly two months since I moved out, can she even still try to sue for so-called damages?

Afternoon all,

I've got an unsecured personal loan from Northern Rock, and so I've been watching the situation with interest. I don't want them to go bump, because it's a bit harsh on all the people with savings, but it got me to thinking.

If NR goes bust, what happens to my loan? I understand that if they get taken over, it would transfer to the new owner, but what about if no-one takes it over (which seems a possibility in the current financially troubled world)? Is my loan written off as bad debt, or would administrators become involved?

I've been thinking about filing bankruptcy using one of the websites that fills out all the paperwork for you and then all you have to do is bring them to court. they garuntee their work, if the judge does not accept them they will either fix the problem or refund your money. If anyone has ever used one of these businesses could you please tell me about your experience or knows of a good website to go to please let me know.

A friend ernesto died at work from a heart attack on Sunday night.
It was a mangers fault that he overworked himself.
I told my manager that he is not suppose to be working on back-stalking merchandise because of his condition. She told me to mind my own buisness and get back to work, and to worry about my job and let her worry about hers.
About five minutes later he shouted he was light headed. I couldn't do CPR when he had a heartbeat. I had to just watch him suffer. All she had to do was page another manager and ask if he was ok to work in the back room. Despite the low staff situation, all it would have taken was an extra 30 seconds.
Im not sure if I should report this to the fullness or not.
I have had a talk with the stores supervisor and he has left it to me what to do.
What would you guys do with something like this ?

I've been working for this company for over a year now, im the only female in my department.
I'm treated like a worthless piece of crap. I'm constantly being called a b*tch, a knowledgeless child, etc...all by my ego driven boss. This is a very small company so it's almost impossible to go to an HR rep or Owner to ask for help without being laughed at.
I am currently started to document all harrassment and asking each time i'm called a name, for him to stop.
I;m just curious on what to do, driving to work each morning makes me sicker than a dog knowing im going to be called names and blamed for all the companies issues when i have nothing to do with them...what should i do?...
This is the best paying job for my field in the area, i love doing what i do, but not the situation im in.

I find it harder and harder to stay focused on the tasks at hand while I am at work. When my job gets redundant I feel like slacking off a bit. What are some good tips and advice to keep my mind from being drained throughout the day? How do I stay motivated and focused?

I have a friend who's ex is on welfare. His 3 children live with her. He pays child support. She is not working. Since she doesn't work she can't claim the children on taxes, correct? She doesn't have any income except for the welfare. If she is not claiming them as dependents, doesn't my friend have the right to claim them as dependents on his taxes? If he can, would he have to get her to fill out an 8332 form?

Northern Rock can't borrow from the money market so it can't offer mortgages to people so it borrows from the Bank of England at higher interest rates and so puts up its mortgage rates to compensate. The government says we shouldn't ask for more wages so that we can pay our higher interest mortgages because it will spoil their economic model.

I'm am getting ready to come home from Iraq and want to buy a home. I do have some money saved and a credit score of about 690. With the housing market the way it is, VA loan or conventional? I plan on living in the area for 5-8 years. Also if I use the VA loan, is it better to go without the down payment and put the money into the home? If it matters, I'm looking at homes around 125-150k. Thanks!

Specifically, I had a tenant move out with no notice at the end of July (the lease requires a 30-day notice). I was able to get the property re-rented on August 24. Is the former tenant legally liable to pay me ALL of the August rent even though I only lost 3 weeks of income?
