Inaccurate debt collection persists on credit report after dispute
Debt collectors report accounts as delinquent after consumers paid the original creditor directly. Disputes are filed but inconsistencies remain unresolved, damaging credit scores unjustifiably. The gap between collector and creditor payment records is never auto-reconciled.
