• Submit a dispute with the credit bureau
• Under the FCRA, you have a right to dispute inaccurate records on your report and have them removed if the bureau cannot verify or correct them.
• Send a dispute claim with CenturyLink
• You can also submit a dispute with CenturyLink as it is the company that reported the alleged outstanding debt to the bureau.
• Send a pay-to-delete letter
• This is a negotiation letter that you can send to your creditor requesting that you be allowed to make partial payment in exchange for having the negative information removed from your report.
• Saturation technique - It's a strategy you can employ to help you pass your goodwill letter to as many right hands as possible. A quick search should give you addresses to your target organization that you can use to send the letters. Take note of any different addresses and names of people in your replies. Send more letters to these addresses and keep at it until your request is granted.
