If you have a charged off debt past 7 years can a new company get a collection company to collect the debt?
I don't know what state you reside in, or how the debt is classified However, it seems possible that the SOL has expired. Write the company and ask for a confirmation of the debt. Don't do anything until you receive it, and check the SOL in state pertaining to the type of debt you have.

Can a credit card company sue you after fourteen years?
This will depend on the statute of limitations in your state but there are also other factors that will determine whether or not they can as well. The statute of limitations for your state is dependent on when the last time you made a payment or used the card. So, if you made a payment two years ago on the debt but it's been fourteen years since the last item was charged on your card you only have two years towards the statute of limitations not fourteen. Often, credit card company collection agencies will tell you that they will sue you even if the debt has passed the statute of limitations in order to try to collect on outdated debt. After the statute has passed the company has no legal right to collect it. Additionally, in most cases if the debt is more than 10 years old since the last payment had been made, it is not allowed to be on your credit report. Interestingly, if your states statute of limitations is five years, it can still be posted to your credit report until the 10 years has fully elapsed.

Your former insurance co was to have paid the bill five years ago now you are being threatened by a collection agency and this is the first time you have seen the bill?
Before communicating any more with the collection agency, check with the insurance company to see what happened in that case, and/or with the original company they claim you owe. Most companies would have charged off the bill by now, and you owe nothing. The collection agency may have bought the deal for cents on the dollar and the money they collect doesn't go to the original vendor. It won't do you any good to pay this collection agency, since it starts up the payments again. If they continue to threaten, you have rights. Tell them to send you a bill in writing and to stop calling.
