    Disputing items on your credit report
    If I want to dispute an item on my credit report, what is the procedure I should follow? Do I have a good chance of getting errors eliminated? Do the credit reporting agencies have a limited mount of time in which they have to verify the debt and provide me with proof? Any help would be useful. Thank you in advance.
