What is more credit damaging Bankruptcy or settling a credit card debt?

Bankruptcy would be more credit damaging than just having large credit card debt, mainly because it stays on your credit report for longer. One of the biggest disadvantages of filing for bankruptcy is the lasting effect it has on your credit report- typically staying on your report for 7-10 years.

How do you pay credit card charge-offs?

I am a professional debt collector and would say the best answer would be to either contact your credit card company and see to whom they sold the debt, as they no longer own the debt and therefore can not help you rectify the situation. The other option would be to pull a credit report on yourself and check to see if the collection agency is on your report, or if there was an inquiry on your report from a collection agency.


If your parent added you to a credit card and was then late on payments does this have to remain on your credit report?

This depends on how you were "added". Were you allowed to use the card as an authorized user, or added to a joint account? In the first situation, it is typical for the bureaus to report the debt on your credit. But, technically, since you never signed a contract accepting liability for any debt, it is not "yours" and you could dispute this. If the latter situation applies to you, then you are jointly liable for the debt and it can show on your credit report for 7 years.
