Anytime a negative item is removed from your credit report, it will raise your credit score unless new collections are added to your report.
There are several websites where you can get a free credit report. You can also get your credit report from your local credit card company or your accountant can give you a report.
If it isn't on your credit report, the credit card company still has hopes of you paying it off. When they see that isn't going to happen, you can bet your butt that it WILL be on your credit report.
Absolutely. You can request your credit report anytime you want. If the company that pulled your credit report denied you the credit you sought, by law, you can get a copy of your credit report free if you request it within 30 days of the denial. You are also permitted to get all three of your credit reports once each year free of charge. If you have not requested your free credit reports in the last year, you may call 877-322-8228 and request them. They will arrive in 7 - 10 business days after your order. Understand that these are your credit reports only. They will not include your credit scores. They will only include the subscribers that report to the credit reporting agencies and what they reported about your financial behavior with them.
Too many inquires on your credit report can hurt your score since it may appear that you are applying for too much credit at once.

You can have a credit dispute, if the agency reporting the bad judgment does not get back with the company disputing the judgment within 30 days, it HAS to be removed from your credit report. Example: I filed bankruptcy(?) on a auto repo. and the company did not take it off my credit report, I had my credit card company do a credit dispute, they did not respond within 30 days, and it was removed from my credit report.
You can't MAKE a credit card company reopen an account. You can call the credit bureau and request that they change the status to indicate that is was closed by you and not the credit grantor. Or, you can simply put a notation in your credit report stating that the account was closed by you and not the card company.
One can find out how to obtain a free credit report by directly contacting your credit card company and requesting a free credit report, this can be done once a year.
Most online credit reports are accurate. However, if you receive a copy of your credit report and there is a decrepancy, call or write the credit report company to get this corrected.
