Is there a time limit for collection of a charge off credit card debt?

From my recent experience, a creditor has 5 years only to collect a debt. If it has been 1 day under 5 years it is still valid.
There are time limits to persue leagl action against the customer. That is known as the statute of limitations, state-wise. The account can only stay on the credit report for 7 years after the first date of delinquency, usually 120 days before the charge off date. This is the statute of limitations, federal-wise. Collections efforts however can always continue until the account is paid.

How is a charge card different from a credit card?
A charge card you have to pay the full balance at the end of the month. You can buy as much as you want, but you must pay at the end of the month. A credit card will give you a limit of $xxxx and you can pay that off over years and build the interest until you can never pay it off. So essentially you can buy a yaht with a charge card but not a credit card. The downside to the charge card is the fact that if you cant pay up in full every month, they will gut you worse than a credit card would. Also, charge cards carry an annual fee for their generous rewards points and the risk they incur by backing you.

You will still owe the money, plus interest and lots of collection charges. A collection agency will hound you for payment and you will have a hard time getting another credit card or any kind of loan.
You gave a company your credit card as proof of id and they took money without permission?
My guess is that company was a collection agency? Never give anyone your bank info, or credit card info. If the company was a legitimate company you were doing business with and you did not authorize payment dispute the charge with your credit card company.

How much should I charge on a 500.00 credit card limit so that its not bad on my credit report?
Your payment history is the most important feature for your credit report. If you have a $500 credit card, this is one that may be a "gotcha" card that will charge you for exceeding the credit limit, may add charges exceeding that limit and so on, leading you into a vicious cycle. Only charge what you can pay off entirely at the end of the month.
