I myself had to follow-up constantly and work extensively just to remove a false repayment report from a lazy Credit Institution!

WHY?
Qn. How long does payment history affect credit score?
This depends on various factors, including the number of late payments, amount you owe, and how late your payments were (usually payments made after 90 days), among others. If you have been a serial defaulter, the black mark will reflect on your report for at least 7 years. In cases of bigger financial fiascos, such as bankruptcy, can leave negative impact on your score for at least 10 years.
