techgoddess Posted April 25, 2003 Report Share Posted April 25, 2003 I've got an account that was charged off and sold to a CA a little over 4 years ago (SOL here in cal. is 4 years) Before I knew any better, I made sporadic payments to the CA. Now, since the last payments I made to the OC were over 4 years ago, is it past SOL with the CA, too? (even though I made payments to the CA less than 4 years ago?) Can I tell them to go take a hike because the debt is passed SOL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb9tbq Posted April 25, 2003 Report Share Posted April 25, 2003 Oh - I do believe paying will extend the SOL from the last pay date. It is just the reporting to the CRAs that are not suppose to change. So you will want to lay low on this till that 4 years are up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techgoddess Posted April 25, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2003 If it's not passed the SOL, I'll probably go ahead and try to settle it (if they can verify it). It would just be cool if I didn't have to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookiemnster Posted April 25, 2003 Report Share Posted April 25, 2003 In California, any payment will extend the SOL...unless the 4 years elapsed between payments. Once the SOL has passed, it can't be re-started again by making a payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
