I’ve just been offered a new job. They are going to do a consumer credit report for employment and education verification. What is exactly on this report? If I got fired from a job, will it be on the report?

When a credit card account is charged off, can a consumer still make payments on an account at a later date?

Consumer Credit Reports
Roderick C asked:


Being that it’s been stated, a charge-off stays on a credit report for 7 years, regardless if you pay off the balance or not, I was wondering if it would be worth it paying off the debt in the near future (long before the 7 years are up) as the right thing to do.

Lesson Plan ideas for teaching Consumer Protection – legislation and agencies?

Consumer Credit Reports
totlkuhs asked:


I need to gear this toward 9th and 10th graders. I will also need to complete a 2 week unit plan on the subject so the lesson plan needs to actually be about only one of the subtopics, but it can be any one that I choose. (Fair Credit Reporting Act, Fair Crdeit Bililng Act, Equal Credit Opportunity Act, Fair Credit Collection Practices, Consumer Credit Protection Act, Federal Trade Commission Act, Consumer Product Safety Act, or Consumer Leasing Act) Any help is greatly appreciated!
