Dispute the R9 one, it should be dropped off 6 years from the last date of activity.

Now I am really confused.
On my Credit Report that I recently received from Equifax under the Credit History and /or Banking Information section it shows that I have the following:

One I5
One I1 and

One R9 (which has been paid off for 8 years now).

All of the companies which reported has been paid, how do I get this stuff off my report so that I can get on with my life?

Thanks Lisa,
That's true.. the R rating is shown more often than the I rating.

Just a small note to the information you posted on the Rating System:

There is no "L" rating - it is called "I" and stands for Installment (meaning Loan).

There is no rating number of "6" for either R or I ratings. At 5 (which means 5 months late) all lending institutions will write off their debts. These debts then jump to an R9 meaning Written-off/Bad Debt. This is when it will most likely be sent to a Collection Agency.

Did you know that there are no laws in Canada that regulate the "R" rating system with the credit bureaus?

Ratings are as follows:
"R" ratings are for revolving credit lines such credit cards, lines of credit.
These loans keep revolving and are never expected to be paid off completely.
R1 , R2 , R3 , R4 , R5 , R6 , R7 , R8 , R9

"I" rating system is for loans which have a fixed length of time. ie.. if you have a 5 year loan, it will completely paid off in a 60 month term.
I1, I2 , I3 , I4 , I5 , I6 , I7 , I8 , I9

R1 and I1 are the best. R9 and I9 are the worst cost big time on your credit score.
