You had a credit card account which they charged off and sold to a collection agency ca Now you have that charge off which carries a balance and a CA collecting on the same debt What could you do?

It is unlikely that the account was "sold" to a collection agency. Rather, the agency was contracted to recover the debt. The "charge off" of the account only affects the original creditor, and represents a loss reported against the company's taxes. If the collection agency has attempted to recover the debt and has been unable to, the original creditor will likely pull back the account and refer it to another agency in hopes of greater success.


How long can a collection company try to collect on an account?

Can a collection agency put the same item on your credit report that has already been reported by the original creditor?

Yes. The original creditor more than likely put the item on first, then sold the account to a collection company who after unsuccessfully trying to collect the debt reported the item to the credit bureaus. So to you it was the same account or item but now the debt has transferred to a new company.

Can a collection agency charge interest of 1030 to a charge off account that has been paid down to 700 from 4514 but you missed two months?

The collection company has probably charged interest sincethe day they received the account. The interest rate can differ from state to state on a charged off account. So yes, they can but that amount is not just for two months. You need to ask for a total breakdown on the account and see if the interest charged is correct.
