Yes, you still owe the money regardless of the creditor writing off the debt.
The reason why a business would do this is to balance their accounting books. This is mostly because unpaid, or aging, account receivables is considered an "current asset" and under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles you can not keep it as such after a period of time, especially after a year.
It also a very common practice in businesses at the end of a tax year to do the bulk of the write offs, to reduce their taxable amount. Since the money you owed was not paid, so they should not have to pay taxes on the hope of one day getting paid.

Can credit card companies submit your debt to the IRS as income and make you pay taxes?

Should you pay off a debt that is already listed on your credit report as charged off?
A debt being designated as a "charge off" does not mean the debt is not valid and collectible. Collection of the debt will still be pursued either through an agency contracted by the original creditor or a third party purchaser. The creditor/collector has the option of filing a lawsuit against the debtor to recover monies owed as well as using common collection practices such as telephone and written correspondence.
Do you still have to pay a write-off account?
A write-off account typically indicates that a debt is deemed uncollectible and has been removed from the company's balance sheet. However, this doesn't absolve the debtor from the obligation to pay; the creditor may still pursue collection, and the debt may impact your credit score. If the debt is sold to a collection agency, you may still be responsible for payment. Always check with the creditor for specific terms regarding your account.

What is internal charge off?
A bank or a loan company can "charge off" a small amount of debt to get the amount off their books. However, this will affect a person's credit report. And it does not mean the person does not have to pay the debt. A debtor should still work to pay off the charge off, to clear the debt and save their credit rating.
