I want to offer to pay the fee to make sure they actually report to the Credit Bureaus in a timely fashion so I can get my score up after I pay off my debt.

juan asked:


Does anyone know if credit bureaus are somehow linked to the government’s social security systems in order to verify social security numbers when someone is applying for credit? What’s to prevent someone from providing a tax id when applying for credit?

Are collectors required to report debts to the credit bureaus?

May 19th, 2010 admin
what’s the point asked:


I just found a 4 year old bill from a collection agency in some of my papers. Thing is I pulled my credit report from all three bureaus yesterday and it wasn’t on there. I would think it would be there by now.
Are the collectors not required to report debts or could it be that they aren’t bothering because it would only sit on the reports for 2 years at this point?
I do owe the money. It’s from an old phone bill.
I haven’t received anything else from them since ’03. Should I even bother contacting them or just ride it out and hope it doesn’t show up on the credit report?
