THE ONLY NEGATIVE
INFORMATION that
CAN REMAIN on your credit
report
is NOT what is accurate, but what the Credit
Bureaus
CAN PROVE TO BE ACCURATE
under theFair Credit Reporting Act. And the "burden of proof"
falls on your Creditors and the Credit Bureaus and NOT you.And, anything your creditors and the Credit Bureaus CAN’T PROVE must be REMOVED
from your credit reports-it’s the law!
