The Truth About Credit Repair
This entry was posted on 3/6/2007 9:45 AM and is filed under Credit Repair,Credit Report,Credit,Identity Theft.
The TRUTH About Credit Repair…Here is a very good article about the ins and outs of credit repair by Sebastian Foss
"Have you ever wondered what companies send you when they claim you can erase your bad credit overnight? How about those ads that say you can get any major credit card 100% Guaranteed regardless of your credit?
Ads abound almost everywhere (online and off) selling books, systems and secrets to help you fix your credit in a hurry. Many of these programs have claims which read like the covers of supermarket tabloids “In 3hrs my credit score jumped from 580 to 676!”… “Erase bad credit and smash your debts with just 2 Magic Letters!”. "Create a completely new credit file in 24hrs!” Are these types of claims ALWAYS too good to be true? The answer is “Yes and… no”.
While many people would love for you to believe that the only thing that can fix bad credit is time; in reality… nothing could be further from the truth. The fact is, time is only one factor which will fix a credit report (but it’s a far cry from being the only factor). How can I back this up? Easy. Under a consumer protection law known as the Fair Credit Reporting Act (a.k.a. the FCRA) the only negative information which can remain on your credit report is not what is accurate… but what can be proved as such. What’s this mean to you?
It means any negative item on your credit report can only remain there if it is accurate and CAN BE PROVED AS ACCURATE under the guidelines of the FCRA. This undisputable fact presents consumers with both good news and bad news. The good news is that through the FCRA your credit score can most likely be improved dramatically in a very short period of time with only a modest amount of effort on your part.
The bad news is that while the actual “work” will take very little of your time, it is vital that you have good information on “how” to go about it. This is the bad news; 9 out of 10 courses on restoring your credit will do nothing more than lead you into a snake pit. This is because they provide you with out-dated “Boiler Plate” dispute letters which are rarely effective. These are nothing more than form letters and… quite frankly (more bad news) the Credit Bureaus and Creditors will laugh at you if you try to use them.
While I agree with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) that “Anything a Credit Repair Clinic can do for you legally, you can do for yourself at little or not cost”… the key element you need for success is the latest inside techniques and procedures to get the results you want. These involve strategies known as “Proof of Contract”, “Constructive Notice”, “Challenge of Procedure” or “Restrictive Endorsement” and many others.
All these terms may “sound” impressive but they are really quite simple. In the end, it is nothing more than a method of communication which exercises your consumer protection rights, gets the results you want and raises your credit score. Even more impressive, once you learn how simple it can be by doing it for yourself, you will find there is a fortune to be made doing it for others! Either way, it all starts by requesting a free copy of your credit report by " Clicking Here For Credit Secrets Bible™" To receive Free Credit Tips including “How to Bullet-Proof Yourself From Identity Theft For FREE!” "
I found this to be a very imformative article about credit repair. While it is easy to do, sometimes you may require help from a credit repair agency. If so, don't live with bad credit, seek help when you need it.Tags: credit repairMore blogs about credit repair.

How LifeLock Protects Your Identity
How LifeLock Protects Your Identity
LifeLock is an amazing service that protects consumers and businesses from identity theft before it happens! We found a very good description of how it works at Identity Guard Central.
"How It Works
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS
When you become a LifeLock client, they set alerts on all of your credit reports (there are more than just the "big three"). These credit report alerts will usually be set within an hour of enrolling at LifeLock . You will start receiving letters from the credit bureaus about 7 days after enrolling, to confirm that your alerts have been placed.
While your initial locks will be set within about an hour of your enrollment with LifeLock , they must be renewed every ninety days to stay in effect. LifeLock takes care of this for you automatically.
In two to four weeks, you will receive credit reports from Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, the three largest national credit bureaus. Most importantly, LifeLock's guarantee is in full force from the moment you enroll. They will re-order these reports periodically for your files.
The great news is that you will stop receiving pre-approved credit offers and your junk mail load will be reduced dramatically. Many people tell us that if nothing else, reducing the junk mail alone is worth the price.
Of course, you can do everything listed above yourself for free. However, it's the details of actually doing it, then re-doing it, then dealing with any problems that arise, then keeping up on the changes in the procedures of the bureaus, the new databases that are coming online, and the laws that become too much for most people and the reason that tens of thousands of people have turned to LifeLock.LifeLock Identity Theft Prevention - Save 10%
Your Identity is much more than credit fraud. Although it can take many hours and even years to repair, damage to credit reports is often the easiest thing from which to recover when your personal information is stolen. Every day, all over the United States, identity theft victims find themselves being arrested, denied earned entitlements, being passed over for promotion, not getting hired or, worse, actually getting fired, not getting rental leases, not getting insurance, paying higher life, health and auto insurance premiums, facing the IRS because an audit alert has been triggered...the list is long and limited only to the thief's imagination and industry. LifeLock is constantly updating their systems, adding new databases, working to educate legislators and congress, and helping to track down and prosecute the thieves. These thieves have literally unlimited resources, unlimited time and no scruples whatsoever. LifeLock has integrity and operates within the law, but they have no mercy whatsoever for the thief. That's why they stand behind everything they do with a $1 million guarantee.LifeLock is the only Identity Theft Prevention Solution backed by a one-million dollar guarantee!

Southern California InFocus - Understanding credit scoring and credit repair
Southern California InFocus - Understanding credit scoring and credit repair
"Understanding credit scoring and credit repair
By Uzma Afzal
This article is intended to provide information to all people trying to improve their credit score, including those seeking a riba free loan. Credit remediation is a subject consumers often face with fear and trepidation, and for good reason. With the exception of recognizing that the best score wins, the average home shopper knows very little about the whole credit scoring process. Sub-prime borrowers who are eager to move into A-Paper territory often find themselves at a loss when trying to find ways to upgrade their credit history. The good news is there are ways to improve less-than-perfect credit scores and obtain a loan for the home you really want.
The first step in the process is making sure that you have a current copy of your credit report. Congress recently amended the Fair Credit Reporting Act so that consumers may now receive one free credit report annually. There are three major credit bureaus: Equifax, Experian, and Transunion. Since entries can vary across bureaus, you’ll want to request a free report from each of the three companies. (Go to www.annualcreditreport.com)
It’s also important to know just what a good credit score is. Most A-Paper scores generally begin around 680, although this number may differ slightly among lenders. Don’t despair if you come up shy; there is always room for improvement. Increasing your score just 5 points can save a significant amount of money. For example, if your score is 698 and you increase it to 703, then you could save yourself thousands of dollars over time as a result of a slight improvement in your loan’s interest rate.
While credit repair is necessary for some, it’s not the only way to increase your credit score. Even if you have stellar credit, you can enhance your score through these steps:• Evenly distribute your credit card debt to change the ratio of debt to available credit. Let’s say you have a credit score of 665. If you have debt on only one card, and four additional credit cards with zero balances, evenly distributing the debt of the first card could move you closer, and possibly into, that ideal bracket.
• Keep your existing accounts open and active. The average consumer is usually anxious to close credit card accounts that have zero balances, but doing this can cause them to lose the benefits of a long-term credit history and increase their ratio of debt-to-available credit. The bottom line is don’t close those old accounts!
• Keep credit inquiries to a minimum. Each inquiry into your credit history can impact your score anywhere from 2-50 points. When it comes to mortgage and auto loans, even though you’re only looking for one loan, multiple lenders may request your credit report. To compensate for this, the score counts multiple auto or mortgage inquiries in any 14-day period as just one inquiry, so try and stay within that time frame.
Remember, credit scores don’t change overnight. Improving them requires time and diligent effort on your part, so it’s a good idea to get the ball rolling at least three to six months prior to submitting your application for home financing.
If credit repair is what you need, you can either begin the process yourself or seek out a repair service. If you decide to make your own improvements, visit as many websites as possible to get information regarding credit laws and consumer rights. Diligently search through them and educate yourself to ensure that you don’t sustain any self-inflicted wounds. A good place to start would be the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) website, which contains a wealth of helpful literature.
If you’re facing severe or complicated credit issues, then you’ll probably want to enlist the assistance of a professional credit repair company. Before you do, be sure to familiarize yourself with the FTC’s regulations on credit repair. With over 1,100 credit repair companies to choose from, it’s important to be certain you are dealing with a reputable firm. Examine the FTC’s information on fraudulent practices to avoid falling prey to credit repair scams. Addressing credit issues can be uncomfortable to say the least. But by taking these steps now, you’ll be that much closer to obtaining the home of your dreams.Additional Resources:

What Is A Credit Report and Why Does It Matter
What Is A Credit Report and Why Does It Matter
What Is A Credit Report and Why Does It Matter
"We've all heard of it. We all know we have one and have probably spent a fair amount of time thinking about it, but the fact of the matter is that most people have never seen theirs. So, what is it? Our credit report. Oddly enough, even though our credit report influences just about every aspect of our financial life, most of us have never even seen ours, let alone know what our FICO or credit score is. Not only will understanding your credit report help you make important financial decisions, it can also help you see just what it is that is keeping you from getting the credit that you may need.What Is A Credit Report?A credit report is a document that includes all your pertinent personal and financial information. It will contain your full legal name, your social security number, previous and current addresses, date of birth, and current and previous employers. This information has been obtained from any previous credit applications you have filled out.This report will also include information about any financial accounts you have now or have had in the past. This will include any loans, credit cards and their credit limits, monthly bills, and so on. It will also include the names of any other persons that may be responsible for payment on these accounts.Any financial situations that you have been involved in that are public record will also be included. This means that judgements, tax liens, bankruptcies, overdue child support, etc., will also show up on this report.Inquiries are also marked on your credit report. Anytime you apply for a loan, credit card, or anything that requires an institution to request a copy of your credit report, it will be noted.What Is My Credit Score and Why Is It Important?Basically your credit score is based on a mathematical equation that evaluates all the information on your credit report. The end result is called your FICO Score. FICO stands for Fair, Isaac, and Company, the organization that developed the scoring mechanism. This score is what will be used by companies to determine whether you are a safe financial risk or not. In order to even have a FICO score, you must have at least one open account on your credit report and that account needs to have been open for at least six months.Your score is influenced by your financial history. Outstanding debts past 30 days, consistent late payments on monthly bills, and any collection action that has been brought against you will determine what your score will be. Your credit score will influence not only the decision to give you the loan or credit card, but also the amount of interest to attach to the line of credit. The higher your credit score, the lower your interest rate and vice versa.Knowing and understanding your credit report is vital to getting a mortgage, car loan, and even renting an apartment or getting a job.

Repair Your Credit Report - Increase Your Credit Score
Repair Your Credit Report - Increase Your Credit Score
Can Bad Credit be Deleted?
Yes, it can. Despite the fervent protestations of bureaucrats and credit bureaus everywhere, a simple fact remains: negative credit items are deleted from peoples' credit reports by the thousands each and every day. So if you have been worrying about bad credit, or haven't been able to get a car loan, or mortgage, don't despair. Bad credit items CAN be DELETED.
A couple of years ago, an attorney from Lexington Law. visited with a regulatory agency for a casual conversation with two agents. The Agency's office, as a matter of course, believed the major credit bureaus' claim that bad credit couldn't be deleted. The visiting Lexington Law attorney asked, "How many negative listings would you have to see deleted from consumer credit reports before you would believe that bad credit can be deleted: ten? fifty? a hundred? one thousand?" The agents responded with blank stares.
"How about 50,000 deleted negative listings, would that convince you?" continued the Lexington attorney. He pulled a stack of papers six inches high from his briefcase .
"In these pages, we have listed the permanent deletion of over 50,000. negative listings from our clients' files in the last two years alone," he explained. The government agents pulled the stack across the conference table and began to look through the pages, taking in the massive list.
"But have you deleted any bankruptcies?" shot back one of the agents, "we know that bankruptcies can't be deleted." The Lexington attorney leaned across the table and ran his finger down the first page.
"There's one deleted bankruptcy... and, there's another,... and another,... and another. Should I go on?" asked the Lexington attorney.
The agents sat back in their chairs. "You know," began the junior agent, "I have this one listing on my credit report that simply must belong to somebody else..." For more information on credit reporting, credit repair, identity theft, and other financial issues, go to the OnlineCreditProfessor.com Blog.
How is credit repair possible?
The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) allows a consumer to challenge the information on his credit report on the basis of "completeness and accuracy." When a consumer files a dispute, the credit bureaus must contact the source of the credit information (the creditor) and confirm that the information is accurate, verifiable, and not obsolete. In some circumstances, the credit bureau is required to go beyond a simple verification of the creditor's own computer record. If, within 30 days, the credit bureau has not received verification from the creditor, then the credit bureau must promptly delete the credit listing. Learn More."

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) estimates that ID theft victims spend hundreds of hours over many years to get their lives back in order, and fix their credit. Even worse yet, innocent individuals can end up in jail as a result of ID Theft (due to mistaken identity). LifeLock Identity Theft Prevention program protects against this ever happening to you - and they guarantee it - up to $1 million.
According to the FTC, identity theft is the single fastest growing crime in the United States, because it is one of the easiest crimes for criminals to get away with, and one of the most difficult crimes for people to avoid. At least ID theft was the easiest crime to get away with, before LifeLock started protecting people's identities and personal information with their proactive ID protection service.
Most estimates show that it takes an average of 160 hours to clean up the mess left by having your identity and personal information stolen. Why go through the nightmare of ID theft - with LifeLock, there is no work, and no nightmare, because LifeLock stops the crime before it ever happens. It's as simple as that.
