No, only making a payment, promising to make a payment, or providing a letter of reaffirmation of the debt can reset the statue of limitations.
If you have a judgment in your name and make a payment after four years does this extend the statute of limitations?
Making a payment on a judgment after four years typically does not reset or extend the statute of limitations on the debt. The statute of limitations is the time limit for legal action to be taken on a debt, and it is usually based on when the debt first became due. Making a payment on an old debt will not usually restart the clock on the statute of limitations. It's important to check the specific laws in your location to be sure.

In North Dakota, the statute of limitations for credit card debt is typically 6 years. After this time period, the creditor may not be able to sue you to collect the debt.

However, it's important to be cautious, as making a payment or acknowledging the debt could restart the statute of limitations.

If the loan on your car was charged off then the lender has written it off as a loss but not repoed it. do you still owe the loan?
Yes. The statute of limitations governs how long you remain liable, in the sense that once the statute has expired, a suit by the creditor will be dismissed if the debtor raises the statute of limitations as a defense. In general, the statute of limitations begins to run when you default on the note or vehicle installment sales contract, not when the car is repossessed. Repossession is one remedy available to a creditor who has a security interest, but it is not the only one. Very few notes limit a creditor to a single remedy. In general, the creditor can also bring a suit against you for the balance owed regardless of whether or not the collateral is repossessed. In most states, the statute of limitations will begin to run when you missed enough payments to meet the definition of "default" specified in the contract or note. Relying on the statute of limitations to avoid a debt has its risks. The statute may be "tolled" by a variety of acts. Leaving the state where the debt was contracted, for example, often stops the clock until you return. In many states, making a partial payment sets the clock back to 0, so the limitations period begins to run from the date of the last payment. In some states, merely making a promise to make a payment, even orally, is enough to re-start the limitations period. Technically, when the statute of limitations expires, it does not wipe out the debt, it only prevents the creditor from bringing suit to enforce his/her rights. In theory, he/she or an assignee of the original creditor can continue to dun you forever, even if they can't take you to court.
What is the difference between Date Reported and Date of Last Activity on a credit report?
The "date reported" or status date, is the date that the listing creditor lasted updated the information on a consumer's credit file. The DLA is the last time the consumer used an account, either by making a charge, making a payment (prior to default), or incurring service. The DLA is the date that triggers the countdown for how long information can show on a credit report and also triggers the statute of limitations (SOL) countdown for how long a consumer can be sued. The status date is the date that affects credit scores.
