how to remove debt from credit report
Paying a collection account does not mean it will be removed from your credit reports. Collection accounts may be paid for 7.5 years, paid or unpaid. If there is any information related to the collection account that is inaccurate or incomplete, you can dispute it with the credit reporting agencies.ome collectors will remove accounts from your reports once you pay, though not every collector will do this. Legally, those accounts, even paid, can remain on your credit report for up to 7.5 years. Hope this helps! Tenants are moving before 2-year lease is over â moving 10 months early.
