You May Owe a Debt That Does Not Appear on Your Report At All
How To Find Out If Someone Has Gambling Debts
Because creditors are not required to report their account information to Experian, your credit report may not be a complete list of every debt you owe. It's possible that you may have an outstanding debt that does not appear on your report.
Some creditors may choose to report to one or two of the three national credit reporting agencies. Therefore, just because a debt you owe isn't appearing on one credit report does not necessarily mean it isn't appearing on the others.
It's a good idea to order a copy of your report from each of the three major credit reporting agencies and then compare the information from each. If you do have a creditor that does not report to any of the credit reporting agencies, you will need to go over past bills and account statements or contact the company directly to determine what you owe.
It's also possible that a debt you still owe no longer appears on the credit report. Debts, including collection accounts, are deleted seven years from the original delinquency date of the debt. While the account may be deleted from the report, collection agencies may still be able to contact you to request that you repay the debt. Just because the debt is deleted from the credit report doesn't mean that you no longer can be legally responsible for repayment.
