But it happens every day.It’s reported once as a charge-off and then again as a collection. From the lender's point of view, that looks like double trouble, and it can absolutely wreck your credit score and your chances of approval.Here’s why this is important: Most people don’t even realize that a charge-off and a collection are two completely different things, or that reporting the same debt twice is a violation. To make matters worse, if you treat them the same way, you'll use the wrong strategy, waste months of effort, and stay stuck with bad credit that could’ve been fixed.That’s why today, I’m going to break down the real differences between charge-offs and collections and show you the exact steps to fight back against our predatory credit system.
