Well the main thing is to contact your bank. None of the steps will be on the computer unless your bank says so. My suggestion is to call the bank ASAP and talk to them about it.

How do you fix the wrong social security number on your credit report?

You can file a consumer dispute with the credit bureau to make any corrections on your report. You would contact them by using the method given when you got the copy of the report. They would then get back with you to let you know how to get the report corrected. If you are disputing something that a credit-grantor has reported, the bureau then contacts the business for them to verify or change the reported info.

When disputing credit report does your score go up while what is being disputed is taken off and for how long?

*feels like a broken record* Credit scores are based on ALL of the information showing in your permanent credit file at the time they are calculated. Every piece of information connects to the other pieces and forms a cohesive picture which can only be guessed at. The reason for this is that the Fair Isaac Company (FICO), who developed credit scoring software don't release the methods behind their madness. If they did, who would need them? So any guesses about credit scoring additions and subtractions are based on emphirical data only. Their is a great deal of information about credit scoring online and a little research may give you enough ideas to project which way your score will factor after a deletion. But even a correct guess would only apply to you at this given point in time. (Boy, this was a long way of saying "No one knows".)

Is it better to write a collection agency to say that you are disputing a debt of 151 or just ignore their notices?

Write to the agency and tell it you are disputing it; that they are not to call or write to you anymore on it and that if they want to pursue it they have to do so in court. You should also notify the appropriate credit agencies that you are disputing the debt not just ignoring it. Ignoring it but not disputing it looks like you are admitting its yours but you do not or can not pay it. That is bad for your credit. If you dispute a small claim, chances are the agency will consider it not to be worth going to court over and write it off.
