Was the bill sent to collections?Question for the experts:
Credit score dropped from high 700s to mid 600s because of a late electrical bill at my old apartment before I moved out for the summer (no follow up emails with me or anything). I didn't know it was late until I moved back and tried to reactivate, and they told me I have a pending bill due. It was for $51.
Anything I can do to refute this? Such a huge drop for something so trivial (in my eyes).
I don't believe so. I paid for it right when I found out and the company accepted payment.
