If you pay off your past due accounts will the negative report remain on your credit and how does that look when you apply for a new account?

Paying off derogatory items listed on your credit report does NOT cause those items to be deleted. The statute of limitations, which is generally 7 years from the date of last activity still applies. It is better to have paid collection or charge off accounts than unpaid. After a certain amount of time, they will impact your credit scores less and less. Most lender decisions are score driven.

If you have an account that is showing negative and it was included in a bankruptcy can you have the negative account removed or does it stay there and count as two negatives?
The term negative is rather confusing. If the account did not have a balance it would not have been included in the bankruptcy. Any account included in a bankruptcy will remain on the report for the requred length of time, open accounts would be seven years, they will be marked included in bankruptcy. The BK accounts listing will remain for 10.

What do you do with a negative balance in accounts receivables?
Well this would mean possibly that someone overpaid. If so, I would allow that amount to remain and it will clear up when and if they are invoiced in the future. Or you could identify who overpaid and then issue them a refund and clear the accounts receivables account to zero.

The bank has the option to shut down any account that has a negative balance. That is technically an illegal loan and the credit institution can get in trouble for your poor budgeting.
How long will it take for bad credit to be taken out of your record?
The date when the derogatory account is going to be removed from your credit report is known as the FCRA Compliance Date. Most derogatory accounts remain on your credit report for 7 years. Although there are exceptions. Chapter 7 bankruptcy accounts will remain on your credit report for 10 years. A tax lien may report indefinitely. You can try to have the accounts removed before the FCRA Compliance Date by contacting the credit bureaus, collection agencies, and original creditors. If you don't know what you are doing you will need to do quite a bit of research on how this process works, or you may hire a professional credit repair company to help you.

If you just paid items on your credit report will they come off your report if you dispute them to credit bureau?
It's difficult to give a specific answer w/o knowing what type of transactions the accounts were. If they were paid in full it will be noted something similar to "paid as agreed." But will remain on the account until closed and the time limit expires. If they were accounts that were in default they would perhaps be noted "satisfied and/or settled". Defaulted accounts will remain for the entire seven years or possibly more if they involved a judgment. Not all accounts are entered (or even have the same information) on all credit reports. Which is why consumers should make it a habit to inspect their credit report a minimum of once a year, preferable every six months.
