Reappearing Negative Accounts



Can Negative Accounts Return?

Accounts can reappear on a credit report if they were not verified in time but verifiable. However, it very rare.  Once an item is deleted, the FCRA makes it difficult to re-report an item.  Especially if it was an unverified account.  In addition, the credit reporting agencies face monetary penalties of up to $1,000 per reporting.  The Fair Credit Reporting Act also requires that the credit bureaus inform you before they re-report a previously deleted listing.
