However, TekCollect can remove a collection record from your credit file before the seven-year mark, and you can finally improve your credit score.

There are several things you can do to clear your credit record.

1. You can first reach out to Tekcollect through their customer support and raise the issue with them.
2. If the company refuses to acknowledge the fault on its side, you can reach out to a lawyer.
3. Or, request the company first to give you a validation letter.
4. If the validation letter proves an error on their side, ask the company to delete your record, but if they don't, you can then move on to the next step.
5. Send Demand Letters To the company and also report the matter to the FCRA.

How to Send Demand Letters To for an Unresolved Credit Report Dispute

When you discover an inaccuracy on your credit file, you have the right under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) to dispute it with the agency that produced the summary. You can call, go online, or send a letter to dispute credit score mistakes.

When the bureau gets your claim, it is obligated to examine it and, if the data being contested is found to be wrong, to delete the inaccuracy off of your credit file.

Regrettably, the narrative does not always come to an end there. Even though the item under dispute is a genuine error, the dispute procedure often fails to clear material from credit files. If your preliminary disagreement does not result in the mistake being corrected, you can take additional measures.

The credit reporting agency may consider your claim baseless if you continually challenge the same issue without giving any new evidence. This is detrimental for you since "frivolous disputes" are handled by credit bureaus with fewer restrictions. The credit bureau will not examine your disagreement as quickly as other complaints, and the credit reporting agency will avoid an inquiry entirely.

If the credit reporting agency believes that your complaint is frivolous, it must tell you within five days in writing. This notice should include the justification and the data required to resume the inquiry.

It's possible that a credit reporting agency isn't correcting an inaccuracy in your record since your debt collector made the error. If this is the scenario, you ought to argue the record with the debt collector.

Send your challenge and evidence to the organization supplying the credit reporting agencies with the challenged information. If this doesn't work, exacerbate the situation inside the company—involve the CEO if necessary. If the creditor confirms that the facts are wrong, they must remove the record and inform the credit reporting agency.
