Statute of Limitations only apply to litigation. The cable company may have internal rules to cover this. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act this is on your credit report for 7 years...as far as wife goes it depends on the way her name was on the old account if she had any contractual liability... You may want to try and pay the old bill
