States establish laws relating to the execution of creditor judgments. All states allow bank account levies under certain circumstances. Joint accounts can be levied, including marital accounts except those held as TBE. Only one account can be levied (garnished) at a time by an individual judgment holder. In some states the account holder(s) are notified before the levy is executed. This will not necessarily aid the debtor in protecting assets, as generally the court will order the return of any funds removed and the account "frozen" until a ruling as to the legality of the action is rendered.

How long does it take for a credit card company to charge off debt to a debt collection agency?

One year. Then, after it goes to a collection agency.. it is like a bunch of frenzied sharks..who will harrass you for decades! One place I would like to send you. I found out a couple of things in an ebook. It is "Beat the Collector" by Jack Tories. I made a few calls to verify the information and found it to be correct.

You have the receipts of payment from a bill that a collection agency says you still owe what should you do?

You should contact the office of your state attorney general consumer division. Inquire at that office how you should notify the collection agency that the debt was paid. Make certain to safeguard the receipts. You should make a couple of sets of copies and then keep the originals in a safe place.


Will a collection agency or the original creditor accept monthly payments to pay off a debt that is in collections?

Most of the time a collection agency will accept 2-3 equal payments to pay off the balance.As of right now no they will not accept payment and will not work with consumer credit counciling programs. Once it has went to collections, you are not suppose to contact the original debtor. It confusses the situation. You aren't suppose to contact the original creditor once it goes into collections but the Collection agency will accept payments. They are happy to get any money they can. (they get 50% of what they collect)I used a collection agency for a tenant who wouldn't pay for months who I had to evict(went to court) and I received a couple of small payments until the person ran away and hid again. Both the collection agency and I were glad to get any money possible. Unfortunatly, this will show up on your credit report whether you pay or not........... But it is ALWAYS better to pay if in your future creditors eyes (fico score)

If you are late, depending on who you owe, you can get taken to a collection agency, charged fines and/or have your car repossesed. I actually know two people who couldn't do the payments, it may have been for a couple of months, and their cars were repossesed.

Can you get approved for a home purchase if your middle beacon score is 628 and you have a couple of open collection accounts more than 4 years old?

Yes, you can. You are a prime candidate for an home loan. Those collections can be explained in writing by you, and excused by the bank. Yes, though you probably will not qualify for the best rates. If your collection accounts are still active, you would be advised to pay them off, if you can. Talk to a mortgage professional who specializes in BCD loans. There are plenty of mortgages available for people like you.
