Coltfan1972 Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 You can send to a P.O. Box just fine. They will put a notice in the box and they will sign for it just like a physical address. That is not an issue at all. The only problem I see is where you say this account was sold but is listed as charged off. Nothing wrong with it being listed as charged off, if sold, as long as, a zero balance is being reported by whoever charged it off.What can't happen is the creditor charge it off, sell it, list a balance, and then the JDB also list a balance. If the account was charged off, it is correct reporting. What they decide to do with the charged off account is their right. They still want to hurt your credit, to get back at you, so you'll just have to live with the charge offs or find another dispute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So on my husbands reports, EVERY single one of his charge offs have a balance listed. What would be my next step? I am in the beginning stages of disputing with the CB and have some letters ready to put in the mail in the morning.Krista Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torden Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 If the OC did not sell the account they list a balance for, then that listing could be correct. Determine for each such item if there is also a CA trying to collect and/or listing it. If you have specific cases of one account being double listed WITH a balance on each, please post back.

Coltfan1972 Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Charge off is an accounting term. They charge it off with the charged off balance noted. If they sell it, it's charged off but better show zero balance. If they keep it, they will continue to show the alleged balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
