To delete bad credit from Midland Credit Management you must dispute the mark with the credit bureaus. You can do this by writing a dispute letter or hiring a credit repair company.
If you have little damage to your credit report then I suggest you repair your credit yourself. However if you have multiple negative marks on your report then it would be wise to hire a company.
When the bureaus receive your dispute letter and deem it valid they will investigate the disputed listing. They will contact Midland Credit and verify the account is yours, the dates on the account, and the amount of the debt.
If the account can not be verified then the mark must be removed from your credit report. It is common for business to not verify accounts because it costs them time and money.
However some accounts will be verified and this is when a credit repair company can be handy. They can use advanced dispute techniques such as; escalated dispute information requests, creditor direct intervention and debt validation.
In addition a service can take your case to court if it is required. However it is common for investigations to result in the removal of negative marks, regardless of its accuracy.
