Credit Report fix question
Date: Fri, 09/21/2007 - 08:54
Not long ago my husband checked on some credit and they talked to him about some debt on my report.
I was devorced 9 years ago. There were 2 debts one was a credit card the other the mobile home we lived in. They were both given by the court over to my ex to pay.
It shows up on my credit report as a bad debt. Do I need to mail each credit reporting place a copy of the devorce papers stating that these debts were given to my ex?
Will that help my credit?

I most defintely would do exactly as pybasi says. Dispute it 9 years ago was a long time ago. I am not sure what state that you live in I guess it would also depend on what your statue of limitations are also. Just my thoughts, I could be wrong..Someone else will be along to advise you further.
