your credit report only goes back 7 to 10 years so YEA unpaid adverse acounts do simply diappear from your credit report. The answer is yes, depending on the type of the adverse activity, and provided you wait long enough, eventually reports of collections, bankruptcies, late payments and other less than stellar examples of your creditworthiness will simply go away. Credit reports are complex critters - there's much more to say on this topic. I'll be back after I do some further research.

You get closed accounts removed from your credit report in the same manner as any other information. You write a letter of dispute to the creditor, or credit bureau, or both. The question is; why do you want closed accounts removed from your credit? If these accounts were paid as agreed, their appearance on your credit report is still offsetting any other information that appears there. I have clients with closed, 6-10 year old, accounts and active derogatory accounts that still have viable credit scores. Were they to challenge and have removed the closed accounts, they would have no score at all, which can be worse than having a low score. Keep in mind that your credit report, and the resulting credit score, is a history of how you have paid your bills in the last 7 to 10 years. You do not necessarily want that history to be empty.
