You owe Americredit for a car you returned can they charge some of that debt off?
They can charge off all of that debt, but it in no way remediates your repsonsibility to pay. All "charging off" a debt means is that it has been removed from the lender's active books. Charge off does not forgive the debt, only bankruptcy can do that.
Why does a business written off debt as bad?
When a business has debt to collect, it is listed as accounts receivable on their books. This is considered as asset. When it becomes clear that the business cannot collect the debt, it must be written off as bad debt. This is done to remove it from the AR listing.
What is internal charge off?
A bank or a loan company can "charge off" a small amount of debt to get the amount off their books. However, this will affect a person's credit report. And it does not mean the person does not have to pay the debt. A debtor should still work to pay off the charge off, to clear the debt and save their credit rating.
Can a Company Buy back its Debentures?
Typically no, unless this is agreed upon between the debt holder and the issuing institution. The exception to this is callable debt, which allows the issuing corporation to pay off the debt within a certain window, specified by the terms of the issuance.
Are you still liable for a debt after a credit card company charges off your account?
Yes, a charge off does not mean a debt is invalid nor uncollectible. The term is used by creditors to indicate a debt that they believe is not collectible under normal procedures and they are clearing the debt from their books for taxation and operational purposes. The OC will then refer (or sell) the debt to a collection agency or collection attorney for further action.
What is a charge off on your credit?
A charge off is when a creditor basically gives up trying to collect the debt and "charges off" the debt from their books. They do this more for their benefit than the one who owes. It allows them to close out the file and clean up their records. This looks especially bad on a credit report.
If the original creditor wrote off the debt do you still list the creditor in Chaper 7?
Sure. The "writing off" is only a term for the accounting entry on the creditors side...that their books recognized you were a bad debt. They don't forgive the debt by doing so...they just change it from being an asset (money to be received), to a loss.
How do you know if your debt was charged off and if so does that mean you don't owe anything and then your credit can begin to improve again?
A charge off does not relieve you of the debt. It is a term that banks use to clear defaulted accounts off of the books. As a general rule, the account is sold to a third party. That agency will continue efforts to collect the debt. The charge off/debt will stay on your credit report for seven years. The state you live in is only relevant if any legal action such as a lawsuit is taken.
What happens if the creditor does not charge off a debt after a chapter 13?
