I am trying to understand this charge off on my credit report for an auto repo.I do have another thread about this company not notifying me of intent to repo,no late fees,missed payment or even after repo no notice was ever sent to date. I have the account on my credit report and do not understand how to read it exactly. I want to know do I owe the $2486 charge off amount or the $1 past due? The car was repoed some time in August 2009 didn't know til recently when I pulled my report because I gave the car to my sister and she never made the payments to finish paying the vehicle off since I was trying to save her the hassle of the whole process and I got another vehicle anyway.So with my trust seeing it's family the car was never paid and I got absolutely got no notice before and after repo it is in my name and since being repoed it has been leased and exported per (CARFAX) to Niger. I recently sent the company a whychat letter thanks to the help of this board and awaiting the response from them.I just don't understand or know how to read the tradeling for the charge off amount and the balance.Thanks for taking the time every one to read and to those who answered.....

Looks like to me that you owe $1, but becareful that this is not a ploy to get you to pay this and be responsible for more money. You should contact the company that is reporting this and find out what the amount is.
thanks goodnatured I was thinking the same but was not sure.Like you said it could have been a ploy to get me to pay more money. I don't know. I am waiting for my response from the company for my REPOSSESSION DEFICIENCY DISPUTE I sent them so waiting to hear what's up. Thanks
i thought why chat was on credit boards? I would just keep disputing as you are

Hi flaebony,
Yes, cinnamngrl is right. You just go forward and dispute the item. However, for the payments if any, you can also consult an attorney regarding this. Sometimes, you can get a free consultation. So, look out for that.
Thanks,
Aaron
@cinnamngrl it was one of the letters on the whychat site a REPOSSESSION DEFICIENCY DISPUTE letter since I never got any notice before or after....@Aaron well I am still waiting on the company's response from sending out my letter so I will keep you guys updated.I was just wondering if any one could have understood from the credit report entry what do I owe,if it was the $1 or $2486 was not sure...Thanks all
