Read the law on the official site →YOUR RIGHT TO QUESTION A LINE
In New Brunswick, the agency must use its best efforts to confirm or complete what you dispute, within a reasonable time. The law gives no number of days. This is at s.18(1). Section 18(1).
If a consumer disputes the accuracy or completeness of any item of information contained in his or her file, the credit reporting agency within a reasonable time shall use its best endeavours to confirm or complete the information and shall correct, supplement or delete the information in accordance with good practice.

Each letter goes to the bureau's own dispute address. We show the address when you write.
Equifax Canada →TransUnion Canada →Nothing here is legal advice. Where a card shows a quote, it is the government's own text, with the date we read it. Where it says “Quoted section coming”, we are still checking the exact section. The card gives the rule in plain words and links the official page. Accurate information stays on your report; we help you question what is wrong or out of date.
