How long does a collection agency have to legitimately collect a debt?

trixxxi asked:


Is there a specific statute of limitations on collecting the debt? What if this time limit is up, and a collection agency is calling and / or sending letters about how you're going to stop this and get it removed from your credit report? I live in Oregon.

What if the same debt is being reported by more than one company?

It is legal to disclose the debt on your credit report more than one company. For example if you were given a collection agency who then gave it to another?

What happens if you don’t pay off a debt to a collection agency after so many years?

I have a $7,000 debt sitting on my credit report since 2003. It says it will come off in 2010. What does that mean? It hasn’t been updated by the collector since 2003 and I haven’t received notices about paying it since then. What happens after 2010 if I don’t pay it? Does it come off my record for good so I don’t ever have to pay it? Please help!

How do I improve the debt to credit ratio on my credit report?

cnoel912 asked:


The only available credit that is listed on my credit report is my student loan. The current balance of the student loan is $23,500 and it started at $25,000, so my debt to credit ratio is 92%! I keep getting denied by credit card companies because of this high ratio (they state this reason on their “you have been denied” notices. How can I improve my debt to credit ratio so that I can, in turn, improve my credit score?

debt consolidation?

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009
sami_sam asked:


What is the best company to go through for debt reduction/consolidation? I have about 6 credit cards and they are all at their max, and I am only 21!

Now before you go judging me and telling me not to spend my money on shoes, this was all for school, basic living expenses, and to help my family. Student loan companies wont loan to me because my credit score wasnt high enough and I didnt have a co-signer, and I couldnt get federal aid because the *said* my mom made too much (39k a year as a single parent of 3 kids, 2 of which are dependant, a mortgage and 2 car payments? dont think so!)

So… Who are the best non-profit debt relief groups to work with, coming from experience please?
also– does debt reduction show up negatively on your credit report, or does it just show up as a loan?
