Here is advice: * Banks have their own type of credit reporting systems called chexsyems. if the overdraft was over $200 most banks will not let you open another account for atleast 3 years. now as far as this overdraft showing up on your credit report that will not be a problem. You can read more on this if you type in chexsystems in a search engine. * Yes, if you have an overdraft from a bank account IT CAN go on your credit report. We just went through that from an error on the banks part on a check that bounced from someone else and overdrew my husbands account, we moved and didn't use the account and only found this out when we were buying a house and had to pay it off.

What can a collection agency do if your checking account has been overdrafted and you haven't been able to make any payments?

No, it is illegal for a collection agency to garnish or freeze your account for any reason. The only way your account can be garnishes is if you owe taxes or child support.

A collection agency can take 100% of the money in your joint banking accounts, regardless of who deposited it. If the debt is owed, and there are assets in the name of the debtor, those assets are in jeopardy. It is not easy to hide these even by trying to shelter them in an account with someone else's name. If the asset exists, it will be found in most cases, and a collection agency that locates it will take all they can the first time they hit it.
