call the billing company ( collection agency or actual company) and have documentation ready, ask them to remove it from your credit report from when it was paid off. you may have to tell them a couple of times, and try to call the credit people as well (transfax, experion, etc.)

I recently came across some really interesting information on this subject. Apparently "collection agencies" BUY debt from businesses and then try to collect from the ower. The thing is, they don't HAVE to report the information to the credit bureau. It's messed up! You really need to do research to find a solution to this problem. Apparently they can get away with some major crap!

Make a copy of your credit card statement showing you paid. Mail that with a letter to collection agency with explanation. Tell collection agency to report this to whoever hired them to collect. Notify collection agency to consider themselves to be released from any more action against you. If collection agency has any further contact with you concerning this matter it will be considered harrassment and dealt with accordingly.

Get proof that it was paid (credit card record, receipt, etc.) and fax it to both the original creditor and the collection agency. Demand that they update your credit reports accordingly.

Your credit card company should have a record of this. This sounds like a mess, you need to call and see what is going on. If this debt was paid and you have proof you should send them proof and then rebut them at credit bureau.

bill creditors will say basically approximately something to get them to pay. it is likewise achievable that that's a scam. Insist on seeing a paper bill from the collections company, alongside with a replica of the bill from the unique corporation. once you get that, touch the unique corporation and verify that it did no longer gets a commission. you could tell the collections company which you will pay the bill if that's substantiated, yet are not going to take their observe for it without seeing some thing on paper.
