| I don't believe a HELOC should show as a mortgage, although like Centex, I don't know what the reporting requirements say.
As far as I've seen, a line of credit (whether secured or unsecured) reports as exactly what it is. It's a line of credit that can be tapped as needed. If it were a fixed loan for a second mortgage, I would think that it would be a mortgage. However, a LINE of credit is exactly that--a line that is available when you need it. It is not an installment loan, because payment terms are not fixed. It isn't a mortgage, it's just credit that has the house as security. The terms are based on how much you use, just like a revolving account.
Maybe someone has knowledge of the Metro2 manual, but to me, it looks like it should be a revolving account.

It was one of the first hits on Google though way back when...seems to me the search terms were ".pdf" and "cdia" and "metro2" although I may also have included "eOSCAR" as a term.
The CDIA had a lot of good information at the time...it is still there, but you have to do some digging as a non-member.

| Thanks everyone.
Look I know nothing of how the credit world works except what I read. That is all I have to go by.
Now I really don't know and I didn't bother to look on how I spelled simulator, but if I wrote stimulator I have other things on my mind. I keep saying litagator at work instead of ligator.
One of the reasons I was asking about the HELCO is one CRA is reporting it as a mortgage and not a revolving line of credit.
From what I have gathered the information is put in by the DF, so if one is reporting it as a mortgage and the others aren't then the CRA is using this info differently. Then again I don't know. I find it hard to believe that the DF would report as a mortgage on one and as a revolving on the others. |

| Just got the final from TU now its says that Arrow was verified but they are not on my CR--any clue why?
I disputed DOFD on one (OC) and they did change it to 2/08-the one Arrow has/had.
When it says new information below-is that anything in the TL they might have changed- I can't see anything different. |

| Hopefully someone can help with the previous question. I have others.
This cell phone/jdb trade line.
On EQ 2/06 it says that I had 2 accounts with the CELL PHONE company. Account numbers unknown they both say TF2xxxx.
One TL says
opened 96-
CO amount 121.00 then it says transferred sold---
date of last payment is 2/03
Second TL says
opened 98
date of last payment 8/02
charge off amount 342.*
sold 2/06 this JDB says it bought it in 12/06
JDB's TL
opened 12/06
recent balance 394.*
The only mention of a second account is on the 2/06 and 10/06 CR
The JDB is saying
EQ date of last activity 1/2003 charged off amount 394.00
TU date to be removed 12/09 charged off amount 394.00
EX date to be removed 10/09 charged off 394.00
I am fairly sure I had a cell phone with the company in 96 not 98. I only had one phone and one number
I am confused with the amount charged off if this account is the 96 or the 98, if its the 98 account why the difference in money 342/394. It can't be interest the amount is not going up according to my CR's
In process of writing letter trying to find out if this is illegal.
