how long til an account gets taken off your credit report. i have a closed account from february 1998 still listed on my credit report, plus it has a balance on it
It will remain for at least 10 years but there's no guarantee that it will fall off as of that date. Is the balance valid? It could have been charged off and the collectors actions have fallen off under the FCRA. I would see it that way if I were eyeballing your report. If the balance isnt valid I would disouote it cause even though the accoutn is closed, the balance still is considered in your outstanding debt utilization.
