Credit Tips
These are just a few of the best credit tips and facts to help you improve your credit report and score and give you some ideas for fixing or repairing your credit. When buying a car get pre-approved first at your bank or credit union for example, because car dealers will contact several companies in an effort to get you the cheapest rate and this will affect your FICO score because you’ll have several hits at one time on your credit report.
It’s often recommended to drastically reduce your credit card use leave your credit card at home. However many people find it hard to do this if they need to carry it in case they need to call for a tow truck or other emergency. Weigh the risks.
If you can’t make your payments on time, contact your creditors immediately. Always be proactive when it comes to any debt you have. Develop a simple plan to repay your debt, and do your best to follow that plan even if it’s only to pay a small amount each month.
If you contact your creditors write down the specific names and phone numbers of your contacts at the companies. Follow up any phone conversations with creditors with letters confirming any agreements you’ve made.
Keep in constant contact with your creditors until you resolve your credit problems. Bankruptcy should not be the first solution to your financial problems. It doesn’t wipe your credit slate clean or give you a fresh start because it stays on your credit report for up to ten years.
The ability to buy a car, and/or get a home loan absolutely depends on your credit history and score. Some employers will use your credit score in their evaluation of you as a future employee. Read more...
