Collection Fell Off My Credit Report.

I had my only collection fall off my credit report this month. I have on charge-off still showing that is 7 years old that should drop off at any time. Anyways, I have seen people ask how much a collection dropping off will riase your score. That as I have seen epople say depends on your situation. However, for me my score went from 653 to 672, 614 to 628 and 630 to 657. Hope I get the same bump when my charge-off drops off as well.Smiley Wink

Re: Collection Fell Off My Credit Report.

If the charge off is the last negative thing on your credit report, I'll bet your next bump will be bigger.  (If you have lates, etc. it won't be as much, but if you otherwise have a perfect history and the charge off is the last baddie to go, it'll be nice!)

You could always try and speed it up by sending a request to the CRAs and stating that the account is "obsolete". I did this with one of my accounts that is due to fall off in three months. (fingers crossed)

Iltph, we don't advocate unethical credit repair. The account is OP's and is rightfully reporting until it falls off. OP can always do a GW letter to attempt to remove the item.
