Question about Collectors

Recommended Posts

I have 4 cards that were charged off in 2001. This coming summer (05) they will be past the SOL for the state of Texas.

My question is this....when those accounts are sold to or bought by collectors, can they list that debt on your CR by them if they are already listed by the original creditor?

Also, when my 7 years passes...and the charge offs are removed...can the collector still list those on my report? Will this always be a fiscous cycle?

Thanks in advance!

Yes. There will be one entry from the OC and one entry from the collection agency.

No, they can NOT put an obsolete back on your CR - at least not legally. Some will try to illegally re-age the debt to keep it on your reports, but this is a big violation of the FCRA and you can sue their butts for it !
