How do you get accounts that have been closed for a long time removed from your credit report?
You get closed accounts removed from your credit report in the same manner as any other information. You write a letter of dispute to the creditor, or credit bureau, or both. The question is; why do you want closed accounts removed from your credit? If these accounts were paid as agreed, their appearance on your credit report is still offsetting any other information that appears there. I have clients with closed, 6-10 year old, accounts and active derogatory accounts that still have viable credit scores. Were they to challenge and have removed the closed accounts, they would have no score at all, which can be worse than having a low score. Keep in mind that your credit report, and the resulting credit score, is a history of how you have paid your bills in the last 7 to 10 years. You do not necessarily want that history to be empty.
If you get a charge off deleted from your credit report will it dramatically raise your score or is it worth it?
If there are no other negative items on your credit report, and depending on other small variables, it will be a dramatic (50-100) point increase.
How many points will your credit score improve if a state tax lien is deleted?
You credit score will not improve just because any lien is deleted. You have to earn your credit points by payment history of creditors you make agreements with.
What can you do if your credit report shows active accounts that you thought were charged off?
Why would you want to do anything? Having active accounts, instead of charged off accounts is a positive reflection of your past credit history and is probably causing you to have a credit score. This is a good thing, certainly much better than having charge offs, even paid charge offs showing. Your credit report is a history of how you have managed debt over the past 7 to 10 years. Accounts that were active during that period of time, whether open, closed, active or delinquent, are SUPPOSED to show on your credit report. Having them removed would certainly decrease your current credit score.
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.
When a collection account is deleted from your credit report does it initially lower your score?
When I had a collection deleted from my credit it made my score go up. It will take several weeks.
Will your credit score go up when a bankruptcy comes off?
Yes, a Bankruptcy is one of the most damaging accounts which can show up on a credit report. The good news is that after 2 years, the account doesn't impact your credit score as much. Once it is deleted, your credit score is improved.
If you close a checking account wll it hurt your credit score?
Checking accounts are not normally reflected on a credit report.
If you have about 10 collections and charge-offs on your credit report would a pay-off of these accounts within six months raise the credit score over an 18-month period?
Yes. Provided you pay your current accounts on time and have no new collections to your report, your credit score will increase.

Will your score go up if two charge off accounts get dropped off your credit report?
Yes. Anytime derogatory info falls off your report your score will improve.
Is my credit score on my credit report?
Your credit score is determined from the data on your credit report. Most credit reporting sites sell or give away for free a credit score with your credit report. Some site only give away a credit score. So, the answer to your question is, yes, your score generally comes with your credit report but it is not always included.

Your credit score reflects how well you repay debt. So all accounts which are not extensions of credit are not reported to your credit report. Also, personal information such as: - Race - Gender - Income - Address

Why no credit score?
If a credit bureau does not have a credit score for you, it is usually because they do not have enough credit information about you on file to give you a score. This usually occurs when you have not had traditional credit accounts such as credit cards or mortgages with banks that report to the credit bureaus.
