7 years from the date of the last activity or date of last delinquency.

 How long will a car loan stay on your credit report after paying it off?
A car loan or home loan or personal loan will stay on your credit report for 7 years past the date you pay it off. The loan will affect your credit report for 2 years past the date you pay it off.

  How long does it take for your credit report to update?
 Each creditor reports every thirty days which can be from the date the account was started or at the end of the month the beginning of the month and maybe even the middle of the month. Then you have disputes, payments, charged offs and the like. Federal law states that a creditor gets thirty days to respond to a dispute. But a credit report can be updated or get an update in hours, less than 24 hours, the same day, 2 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 1 month or 30 days depending on what you are doing. Your credit report will show you are 1 day late on your payment. So expect and demand instant update on your credit report.

 Quick question for you,though;you keep saying that things will fall off 7 years after the“date of last activity”.I believe this to be false. This should be 7 years from the“date of first delinquency”. No?

 depends the credit I guess
 you can have a home or car loan and until you pay the loan off completely 
any 30 day late mark will show 7 years AFTER the loan is paid in full. 
I know it happened to me with Toyota motor credit.
with credit cards the date of the first AND last will show for seven years unless you can prompt them to only report the past 24 months
 with a chapter 13 bankruptcy the
BKwill show for 7 years after you pay the thing off in full or DLA
 with a collection the
DLAdates can be changed or sold over and over and last for way more than 7 years.
 but as a rule and a credit fact for fair credit reporting. Credit, good or bad, falls off your report 7 years past the date of last activity.


You state:
 If a credit card company or some other loan company sells my already bad
account

to a collection agency the 7 years might start again.

Now, you what you REALLY need to say is that if the collection agency changes
the
DOLA, then they also committed a violation of the FDCPA and you may collect
damages for this violation if you sue them. The date of Last Activity CANNOT
change if the account is sold
-----------------------
on the original account it cannot
but is sold then a totally new date can be started

I guess I should reword that
thanks
-------------------------
No it cannot. You better look that one up again. It is the same debt
and must keep the same DOLA. That has been affirmed in case law.
-------------------------
maybe so in case law
BUT
it happens everyday in the thousands, thousands.
and who in their right mind is going to get a lawyer to straighten that out.
it is called duplicate accounts, collections and, original creditors accounts.
they show up twice when sold for pennies on the dollar to a collections company with a new date report.
this starts up the whole 7 year thing again and bam you are screwed.

so what do think a person should say to these people that these things happen to?

  •  Accounts good or bad will be on my report for 7 years past the "date of last activity" listed on the account, record or file.

  •  After 2 years the level of importance is greatly diminished but the accounts remain on my credit report.

  •  Accounts or records within the past 2 years (good or bad) affect my credit rating the most.

  •  If I do not keepopen lines of credit my score will vanish in 2 years.
