Doing the HAPPY Dance

Yesterday, I sent an e-mail to Cox's corporate office with my scanned attached receipts.  In my e-mail, I explained what hapened and how I corrected it and what I was told when it was corrected.    This morning, at 10:04 a.m., the cable company contacted me to tell me they have contacted their CA and the CA has requested that my paid cable collections be REMOVED from my credit report!!  Whooooohoooo!  That is TWO paid collections that will be gone (the CA was reporting on the same account twice... one TL for equipment...

Cable Paid but CA on Reports

Hello everyone.  I'd like some input on how I should approach a problem that is really affecting my credit.  I moved into the current basement apartment I live in with my daughter over 3 years ago.  I didn't have any help and towards the end of packing, was putting things that didn't go together in the same box.  As a result, I put my cable box in a box with photo albums.    Because my cable TV and Internet is included in the homeowner's WiFi, I had no need for my own cable account and totally forgot about the cable box. At least until the day I went to find my photo albums.  Guess what I found?  The very next day I drove the cable box to Cox Cable, explained what happened, turned in the box, and paid about $92 they said I still owed.  There was also a bill for $36 for the equipment but since I returned it, that bill was deleted (or so I was told).  When settling this with Cox Cable, the rep that day told me no adverse action had been taken and everything was fine.  I didn't think any differently because I had not received any sort of collection notice or even a bill for that matter.   Well, guess what's on my credit reports..
