1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- by software instructions executed by one or more hardware processors;
generating a first alert including an indication of a current status of a credit dispute request and a first selectable link which indicates an address at which a user interface related to the credit dispute request may be accessed;
transmitting, over a wireless communication channel, the first alert to a computing device of a user associated with the credit dispute request, wherein the first alert is configured to activate a software application of the computing device to cause the indication of the current status to display on the computing device and to enable connection via the first selectable link over the wireless communication channel to cause the user interface including the indication of the current status to be displayed on the computing device;
receiving information associated with the credit dispute request; and
in response to determining that the information indicates a change of status of the credit dispute request;
determining an updated status of the credit dispute request that is different than the current status;
generating a second alert including an indication of the updated status and a second selectable link which indicates the address at which the user interface may be accessed; and
transmitting, over the wireless communication channel, the second alert to the computing device of the user, wherein the second alert is configured to activate the software application of the computing device to cause the indication of the updated status to display on the computing device and to enable connection via the second selectable link over the wireless communication channel to cause the user interface including the indication of the updated status to be displayed on the computing device.

Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for credit dispute processing, resolution, and reporting. Credit dispute resolution requests may be received, processed, and sent to a credit bureau for submission to creditors. Status of credit dispute resolutions may be reported to consumers. If a creditor'"'"'s response time is longer than its average response time or if a creditor does not respond to a credit dispute resolution request within a regulatory response period, alerts and reports may be sent to consumers to provide consumers with further options.

6. A credit dispute resolution computing system comprising:
-
a computer readable storage medium having software instructions stored thereon; and one or more processors configured to execute the software instructions to cause the one or more processors to; generate a first alert including an indication of a current status of a credit dispute request and a first selectable link which indicates an address at which a user interface related to the credit dispute request may be accessed; transmit, over a wireless communication channel, the first alert to a computing device of a user associated with the credit dispute request, wherein the first alert is configured to activate a software application of the computing device to cause the indication of the current status to display on the computing device and to enable connection via the first selectable link over the wireless communication channel to cause the user interface including the indication of the current status to be displayed on the computing device; receive information associated with the credit dispute request; and in response to determining that the information indicates a change of status of the credit dispute request; determine an updated status of the credit dispute request that is different than the current status; generate a second alert including an indication of the updated status and a second selectable link which indicates the address at which the user interface may be accessed; and transmit, over the wireless communication channel, the second alert to the computing device of the user, wherein the second alert is configured to activate the software application of the computing device to cause the indication of the updated status to display on the computing device and to enable connection via the second selectable link over the wireless communication channel to cause the user interface including the indication of the updated status to be displayed on the computing device. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)

11. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having software instructions stored thereon, the software instructions executable by one or more processors to cause the one or more processors to:
-
generate a first alert including an indication of a current status of a credit dispute request and a first selectable link which indicates an address at which a user interface related to the credit dispute request may be accessed; transmit, over a wireless communication channel, the first alert to a computing device of a user associated with the credit dispute request, wherein the first alert is configured to activate a software application of the computing device to cause the indication of the current status to display on the computing device and to enable connection via the first selectable link over the wireless communication channel to cause the user interface including the indication of the current status to be displayed on the computing device; receive information associated with the credit dispute request; and in response to determining that the information indicates a change of status of the credit dispute request; determine an updated status of the credit dispute request that is different than the current status; generate a second alert including an indication of the updated status and a second selectable link which indicates the address at which the user interface may be accessed; and transmit, over the wireless communication channel, the second alert to the computing device of the user, wherein the second alert is configured to activate the software application of the computing device to cause the indication of the updated status to display on the computing device and to enable connection via the second selectable link over the wireless communication channel to cause the user interface including the indication of the updated status to be displayed on the computing device. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
