In KY, the debt statute of limitations (SOL) has provisions for signed contracts and non-signed ones. If you signed that you would pay, the SOL is 4 yrs. If you did not sign, it is 5 years. If they sue you and win a judgment, the SOL for collecting is 15 yrs.
Collect it.

A bill collector can make 35,000 a year. They usually receive a percentage of each account that they collect on as well.
Debt collection in Kentucky has one of the longest limits. The creditor has up to 15 years to collect on a written agreement. They have 5 years for an Oral agreement or Credit Card.

You can hire a collector to collect it. You can also ask the court for a judgment against the debtor which give s you a legal right to collect it.
Yes you still owe the bill. The only way you would not owe is if you declared bankruptcy and then it would be off your credit report in seven years. Your best bet is to just pay it, or the bill collectors can harass you for the rest of your life!!!!
There is no limitation on how long a bill collector has to attempt to collect a debt. The statute of limitations on taking legal action is another matter. Even if your bill is old, and no longer shows on your credit report, a bill collector can still attempt to collect it from you. If it's over the statute of limitations, they would not be able to collect in court, but they are not prohibited from contacting you for payment. Refer to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) for more information on the Federal law governing collection activity.
if you do not owe it, they shouldn't be able to collect it anywhere. even if its past the deadline for you to contest the bill you should still try
