I had a bankruptcy trial in XXXX 2015 which was mostly regarding private student loans. I won the case and had all of my private student loans discharged in the bankruptcy. After several months of monitoring my credit, I saw that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX account continued to say " open '' despite having a note that it was charged off as bad debt on my Equifax report. The same account on my XXXX report stated that the account was closed, which is correct. I disputed with Equifax and got a simple repsonse back that they checked with XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX said the information was correct. This student loan that was legally discharged by a federal bankruptcy judge is over {$24000.00} and is still showing up as of today on my Equifax report as open. It does n't make any sense and Equifax did n't seem to do anything other than take XXXX XXXX XXXX word for it rather than doing independent research ... especially when looking up the court order would be free and easy. 

I am naturally trying to get my credit back on track so I can have a normal life and it is a SLOW process I am learning, but this misinformation is only making it worse.
