If they are all settled they will drop off 6 years after the last payment. If they were paid on time then they will count as good for you in credit terms. It will show lenders that you are responsible in paying back the credit.0

If these are all settled, contact the people who you paid the debts back to and ask them for a settlement letter. You can then send this to equifax and they will put a statement of settlement on your account.Debt free by August 2011 or sooner :A0
