		<description>There is only ONE 7-year cycle for the reporting of bad debt....This cannot be re-started regardless of how many debt collectors buy this debt. This 7-year cycle starts on the date of your first missed payment that led to the default on the account. It is illegal for debt collectors to change the “Date of Delinquency” to “re-age” the debt for  their advantage. This is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Mail a letter via certified mail with return receipt to all three credit bureaus (Equifax, TransUnion &amp; Experian). Include a photocopy of your driver's license and social security card...If you don't include these, they may write back requesting them, which would slow the process down by several weeks. In your letter, simply state:

Per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I am requesting 

- validation that this debt is being reported within the 7-year time frame as allowed under the Fair Credit Reporting Act 
- validation of the original "Date of Delinquency" for this debt</description>

		<description>You're right. It's 7 years from the date of first delinquency. 

Mail in disputes for each account to the credit bureaus stating the accounts are past the reporting period established by the FCRA. That should get them removed.</description>
