How to dispute credit report errors

To dispute a credit report error, pull your reports from all three bureaus, identify anything inaccurate, unfair or unverifiable, and file a dispute with each bureau in writing with supporting documents. The bureau must investigate, usually within 30 days, and correct or remove what cannot be verified.

Step by step
