VA GI Bill on Credit Report, how do I get it off

[sav]

Hi. So like a lot of Vets, things happened and I ended up drawing more on the GI Bill. Some time went by, I don't like to give a sob story. Regardless I paid the debt that the VA had for me earlier this year. It was a good chunk of money. Now I'm trying to get it off my credit report. It shows up as a paid in full delinquent account. I've been paying lexington law to try to get the VA people to take it off but no luck.

 

Do ya have any suggestions. I want to put those troubled years after I got out behind me. My credit score isn't horribly bad 629 but it could be better.

I would start by doing these things:

 

1. call the VA directly

 

2. dispute with credit agenies

 

3. Use the DAV to help you
