Should these notices not get posted to my credit file upon review in January 2014, what would be the suitable recommended timeline for making a new application for a CC to avoid too many credit inquiries? Should I wait another 2 - 3 years more to recover my points on file?

@Tripped_up... This could simply be a last ditch effort to collect on this debt (before it gets sold to a 3rd party). I say this because last week I recv'd three notices from two different agencies going after three different accounts with the same institution. These were debts that were defaulted on 8+ yrs back. They have fallen from my credit file, and I don't expect them to reappear - but as ZacksDad suggested, I'll be keeping an eye out for any abnormal postings and you'd be wise to do so too.

This collections agency had pursued me in the previous year...and after all the reports had dropped off my file as of receiving it this year...I got this notice in the previous week...recommendations??

I would still keep an eye on your credit report though as the vultures are constantly trying new ways to sneak things on reports.

Ok, just needed clarification about repeated attempts...thanks for your time..and sorry about that posting error..

No, and it's 6 years.

I had recently received another debt collection notice from this company and my credit file was cleared recently showing "no information reported" under credit history and/or banking information.
Does this mean another 7 year penalty notice on my credit file??
