Ohio SOL is (4) years on credit cards. It has expired--meaning they can try to collect--but can "not" sue in court. To stop them from contacting you in the future--send them this letter: Your Name Your Address Collector's Name Collector's Address Dear Collector, I am writing in response to your (letter or phone call) dated {insert date}, (copy enclosed) about a certain debt that you are attempting to collect. I have checked with my State Attorney General and verified that the legal Statue of Limitations for collecting this type of debt in (insert your state or the state in which the contract was signed) has expired. Now that I am aware of my rights in this matter, consider this letter as official notification that, should you decide to pursue this matter in court, I will invoke my rights and use the "expired statue of limitations" as my defense. Be advised that I consider this matter closed and demand that you, or anyone affiliated with your company, stop contacting me regarding this or any other matter except to advise me, via mail only that your debt collection efforts are being terminated or that you or the creditor are taking specific actions allowed by law. Your Signature Above Name Printed Name
