OK I have asked this question before but searching and reading on past peoples experiences still leaves me a little confused. I have an account with my previous school (see below). It was late and sent to a Lawyer BUT the accoutn was never reported CLOSED by the School just in collections, I recently brought the account current and below is what happened. I have 2 open accounts 1 in collections 1 that is current/was a collection. This acocunt started to report this way BUT in collections TWICE last month. I figured I would give it a bit and see if it worked itself out. THese accoutns ar reporting with the same Account number and information just that one is updated that I am now current. THis is a Direct Private loan from a Private School,

From Reading I have seen that this may be reporting correctly BTU I also read that most of the time these accounts would be closed 1st then report as on collection one open account. I was thinking of calling my School to see if they could correct this BUT 1st I wanted to see if the experts had any feelings on this???Should I even waste my time???? I really appreciate any help you can give on this. I did search BUT most of the threads I saw on this subject were for accounts that were reporting as closed not OPEN...THank you again in advance for an insights you can give me it is truly appreciated

My School
Account Number: XXXXXXXXXXXXX
DateOpened: 09/1997
Status: Collection account/Past due 90 days.

My School
Account Number: XXXXXXXXXXXXX
DateOpened: 09/1997
Status: Open/Current, was a collection

Are the account numbers the same? SL lenders have been changing account numbers from SSNs to non-personal numbers.

yes the account numbers are the same...any one else with any info????????

I would appreciate help with this as well. I have a student loan that does the exact same thing with PHEAA. I just emailed the CEO this morning and I am going to send this letter in the mail as well. It's reporting twice on Experian. The only difference between the loans are some late days, and the status of one loan says Transferred and the other one says Closed. So annoying.

Anyone??? Late night bump

Why don't you just call and ask?

Kinda scurd last time I try to "fix" something it caused a bigger mess then I started with ...will try on Monday to see what is going on with the School.....

*OT FUnny thing is I used to work for the company that does thier MOnthly Payment Plans AND loand payments now hehehehe.......

I finally got EX to delete the duplicate after 9 months. The reason I used, I lie to you not was "This is a duplicate for the 6th damn time". It was gone by the next day!
