No, a "charge off" does not mean the debt has been cancelled by the creditor, the debt is still valid and collectible. The term simply indicates that the creditor is removing the delinquent account from their "books" and will pursue other means such as referring it to a outside collection agency, selling it to a third party collector or using litigation in the form of arbitration or a civil suit to recover money owed.
