Personal Finance & Money Management : How to Build Credit After Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
how long does a default credit card stay on your credit history?
I lost my job 5 years ago and had 2 credit cards that I defaulted on. I tried to set them up on a payment plan but after a while couldn’t even make those payments. They’re still trying to collect. In addition to those 2 credit cards I have thousands of dollars in other bills that have built up over the past few years. I’m trying to decide if it will clear off my credit in a couple more years or if I should file bankruptcy.
