What to do
Get written figures for the same amount and term. Compare total repayment, not only the monthly payment.
Check the outcome
Save a dated copy of the relevant report, statement, or agreement. Verify the actual account terms and subsequent updates. A tool or dispute cannot guarantee a score increase or remove accurate information merely because it is unfavorable.
