My last payment on the credit card was 4/2020. I never made another payment because they closed my account. They recently updated it to a charge off on my credit report around 09/2023. Since this is a business credit card, how can I dispute it to be removed from my personal credit report for good?
answered on Mar 20, 2024
First, check whether the business credit card was indeed under a personal guarantee. If it was, the delinquency could rightfully appear on your personal credit report. However, if the card was strictly under the business's name without any personal guarantee, you might have grounds to dispute... View More

Very often banks refuse to comply with legal documents that they should honor. A POA is just one of them. Wrongfully, they will insist on a certified copy of a court order, submitted by an attorney.

I got a lawyer and paid off the full amount. I also took my son off the account. I still wish to do business with that bank because I have multiple building and business in that bank. How would this affect my business and my bank relationship. What are my next steps and what will happen?
answered on Dec 2, 2023
I'm not understanding what amount had to be paid off and why. If everything is now straightened out, what would be the issue of continuing with the bank?

"Illegal" presumes criminality. If the account was a joint account, it was not illegal. But you need to start a divorce action right away. You can ask the court to have him pay some of the money back. You can also get child support or spousal support. See a local matrimonial attorney right away.
