No, it will not affect your credit. You will probably have to pay the late fee and your interest rate could go up. But legally, creditors can only report you LATE if you are at least 30 days past due.

Can you return an auto without a repossession on your credit report?

Your credit report will state that the vehicle was returned. It will still show a balance remaining once this vehicle is auctioned off. This is your best option, but it already has done it's damage to your credit report with missed payment. Also, this will affect your credit score monthly for the next two years from the date of last payment.

Will having a payment plan with a collection agency greatly reduce your credit score?

No. Once a person is being threatened by a collection agency, there is a high liklihood that the damage to the credit report is already done - a chargeoff or collections transline will already be in your credit report. Having a payment plan merely gets the debt paid and on-time payments are usually NOT reported (however, if you miss a payment, that company can and will send a negative tradeline to further damage your credit reputation).

How high credit cards affect your credit score?

High Credit card balance affect your credit score negatively. See, the debt to credit ratio makes up 10% of your credit score. This means the amount of money you owe on a credit line. The more you owe, the worse it hurts your credit (maxed out cards do the most damage). It is recommended to try to be below 30% of your line of credit.


Can a paid settlement to the collection agency be reported as paid as agreed?

As a general rule the answer is no. Collection agencies will report this to the credit bureau as being settled for less than what was due, which can have a negative impact on your credit report. While paying this money could seem like an effort to repair your credit, it actually can damage it. A situation like this often results from a debt being old and about to fall off of your credit report. If you pay the money to the collection agency then it will stamp a record of such payment for an amount less than the amount originally due. The worst part is that such a record will stay in your credit file for another seven years from the day the payment was received! If you don't make the payment the negative report resulting from that will probably fall off of your credit report much sooner.


What if your dad wants to use your social security number to buy a car you are 20 and his credit is bad. If he cant make the payment will anything else happen besides affecting your credit?

You should never give your social security number to anyone, reguardless of their intentions. If they misplace that number, the damage can be irreperable. If you are 20, you likely have no credit, and sad to say, likely have no understanding of how bad credit can affect you. It's a bad path, I wouldn't go down it.
