Collection drops off in July. Do I stop paying on it?

Hello All!

 

I went from a score of 499 at this time last year to 682 and 683 currently. I have payed all of my credit cards down to zero, kept up to date with all bills and got in touch with a collection agency to remove some stuff. My question is as follows:

 

I have a collection from BoA that's due to come off next month (July), I have been making faithful payments to them every month. I have read somewhere that once it drops off If I keep on making payments this validates my collection and it'll resurges in my credit report. Do I stop paying it when it drops off or do I keep on paying on it? I don't want to hurt my hardwork because of lack of knowledge.

 

Any and all information would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks team!!

 If you have been making payments, depending on your state SOL, you could have restarted your suing SOL.  If you stop making payments they could ultimately sue you.
