The laws vary from state to state but i believe they can after suing and getting a judgment against you. I have "heard" they only sue if the amount of debt is substantial..like more than a few thousand dollars because of the cost of lawyer and other associated costs. They should have to notify you before suing but again that might vary from state to state. Anybody else "heard" anything different?

Why is the balance as per bank statement on the bank reconciliation statement a credit if its a favorable balance but in the bank account the credit means you owe the bank money?

The Debit and Credit on a bank statement reflect the Bank's accounting records, not yours. So when you deposit money into your account, the bank owes you that money to you - it is a liability for them, therefore a credit entry. Similarly, if they charge you a bank fee, it reduces their liability to you, so they would Debit your account (on their books) and Credit an Income account.

A credit card company cannot freeze your bank account. However, it can sue you in court for any overdue balance.

In fact, the judgment lien can be used to seize any assets you own to satisfy the lien.
