    I believe they can hold this data indefinitely while you are still linked. I do not mean data under the open or closed accounts part of your file just specifically the financial association data.

    Yeah I understand that.

    Just wondering why accounts from over 10 years ago are on anyone's reports never mind mine? The Cahoot one that is showing in my linked associates was closed in 2007... it should not even be on her account never mind mine.

    This will be the case if the account was closed within the last six years e.g. if you had a 5 year loan opened 10 years ago it will show the account history for the last year of the loan, showing one month less each month until the loan drops off your file.
