Hi Carol,

I recently pulled my credit report and I ran into an old mortgage loan that I defaulted in. It states that the account was charged off as bad debt and it does not show a current balance. However, it does show a past due balance. Does this mean I still owe this amount? The house was foreclosed and the other debts involved have been resolved and zeroed out. This was the only one that showed a "past due" amount so I'm a little confused.

Thank you,
Julie

I did not clear out I spoke to the people who bought the Dead several times and tried to negotiate I received no paper work They would not negotiate in any way and wanted the 22,000approx within days or threatened bankruptcy One the Friday they rang my father he was raising the money to lend me Due to there attitude He said know and I declared myself bankrupt. Had I been in a better mental space and had time I need not of gone bankrupt as property was involved These people with there bulling caused me to make a very big mistake. There listing lastes for another year. Could you tell me where I can find the rules you have to apply with prior to making a listing to a file.

Hi everyone, I need help! I am in the process of buying a home. I monitor my credit daily and got an alert because a collection was placed on my report , which caused my score to drop...This was a medical bill that I had already made a payment towards and the rest of the payments were set up for automatic draft from my checking account! I called the collection agency and they told me they were sorry they dropped the ball...I asked that they correct this information and delete from my report..they sent me a letter stating that they will delete... Once they delete this.. will this bring my score back up?

If a potential negative account has been closed, is it still affecting my credit score?

Carol,

I was co-signer for my mother on a Care-Credit card (for a veteranary bill) in 2007. She never paid it off and only made the minimum payments and the bill went from around $600 to now over $1000. She declared bankruptcy in 2010 and now it is only showing up in my name. I never made any payments and was just a co-signer. Why did the item not "go away" when she declared bankruptcy? Now it is only showing on my credit report as a negative item that I never paid. How do I get it removed from my credit? It has been sold off from the originial creditor to a different entity as well. Can I contact the original creditor to get it removed?

Hi!! Welcome to our Forum. I'm not Carol, but..I would guess the item didn't go away because your name was on it, as well. Your moter filed for BK ,not you. I'm just giving my '2 cents' because i saw this ame thing happen to someone I know. Actually, it was the other way around for this person. Her dad co-signed for a personal loan for her. She filed BK and her loan was 'discharged' under the BK. However..the loan was still on HIS credit because he was the one who co-signed. I'm sure, though, an expert will be by your poat soon and give you the correct answer.
