Please help....

I have an old unpaid account from 1998 that is still reported in my TU as "unrated or bankruptcy". Does that hurt my score? Should I get it remove completely or try to have them change it to "say paid as agreed"?

sometimes, I've heard it will refresh the aging on the debt
 
and you'd have to wait an addtl 7 years.
 
some may argue against that, but it has happened
 
Just let it drop off.
