There was a medical bill placed on my credit. I contacted the insurance company and they paid the bill to the collection agency. I filed a dispute to have it removed from my credit report. The collection agency sent me a notice on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX that this would be deleted from my credit. It has been 60 days and I checked my report and it is still there. I submitted another dispute on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX to Experian ( XXXX ) to have this deleted and offered the paperwork. I was sent a response in & lt ; 24hour by Experian telling me this will remain on my credit up to 7 years. I have also submitted disputes to XXXX for the same cause. The reporting agencies have refused to remove this from my credit report even though the debt was really due to the insurance company and not my failure to pay the bill. The insurance company has satisfied the debt so why am I continuing to be punished. This process has delayed me from obtaining a mortgage credit, whereas I have not had this problem in the most recent past.
