What is Ohio statute of limitations on credit card debt?

Answer 1

SOL's are established in accordance with state laws. Therefore the time limit and the application of an SOL will differ from state-to-state. A listing of state SOL's pertaining to various types of debts can be found at Card Report Com. http://www.cardreport.com, credit cards are considered "open accounts".

Answer 2

They are written contracts, so 15 years from the date of the "write off" or the date of the last activity on the account, whichever is earlier. "last activity" includes promises to pay, or partial payments made. That resets the clock. Look on credit report to see when the account was "charged" off or "written" off or the date of the last "activity" on the account. It's 15 years from the earlier of those dates.
