I have a question about removing an item from my credit report. I do not know if this is possible, but I want to know if there is a way to remove an old collection from my report. It was for 125 dollars in 1999. I was 18 and it was a medical / emergency room invoice. I was still in highschool and my father was in charge of paying for it, but since I was 18, the bill went in my name. He never told me that it went to a collection agency or anything. And now it is still showing on my credit six yeard later.
