My Ch 7 bankruptcy was discharged about a year ago. Regarding my car, I did not sign the reaffirmation agreement. I voluntarily gave up the car to the bank. Since then, the bank keeps asking me to pay off the car loan. Should I have to do this? I thought I didn't owe anything on the car now?


If you indeed signed the re-affirmation, then novice would be correct - you would be responsible for the balance. The fact is that you did not reaffirm. As long as you included them in your bankrupcty and surrendered the car back to them, then their deficiency balance was discharged the same as every other creditor you filed on.

Tell them their debt was discharged and they can look up your case on PACER. If they keep calling you, tell them you'll contact an attorney for violating bankruptcy laws.
