I would like to start a credit reporting agency industry employee and executives database.

It would collect and freely share with consumers the various personal and financial information of anyone involved in credit reporting industry.

It would use the various data to make assumptions as to their hobbies, beliefes, political stance, sexual preference & overall character based on this information.

If they protest to anything we determine, it will just prove that what we reported about them is true.

Yep. That will be a good database.

i remember you in my thread about credit... have you been working on it?

most creditors will take a deal, normally about 50% of what is owed. just tell them you can pay half right then and there. no more or it's gonna take awhile to repay it. they want it so bad they'll take it, they'll just play a lil hardball. hang up if you have to, say you'll think about it. call back and say sorry half or less is all you can do. if you have the cash to make the deal then i say take it. i negotiated two deals like that that saved me over $2,500

it just means you don't have bad things on your report. you can have a 750 score and still get declined for the smallest loan if you have no credit built up.

I just wait until they send it to a collector and you get the letter in the mail saying "settle this debt now for 45% of what you owe". works like a charm.

if you can do it before that you won't have so much negative information on your credit file.

A collections agency screwed with mine... I had a bill that I couldn't pay while in college. It went to a collections agency who royally sucked.... and they demanded it all.

So I sent it in payments since by law, they have to accept it that way. But I guess they didn't like it so they stopped reporting my payments to the credit bureau.

So basically, as far as my credit report knows, I have owed $2k for the past 3 years without making a payment.... despite it being fully paid off.

So my credit is hurting because of it.

Last I checked though, it was working it's way back up to 624 or so.

Most lenders only require 3 tradelines.

Can have the credit reporting agency call up your utilities and add those as tradelines too. =)

Good thread.

I am wondering why WEBPOWER made a request for info on my report with Experian... Will look into it.


Anyone know these companies:

SEC Software Solutions
Name Seeker Inc.

?


Both in Florida where Webpower has offices.

I worked for a collection agency.. no partial payments allowed. If they sent a partial payment, we sent it right back.

Down to around 760 or so right now, due to my mortgage and car balances, blah.

Find a nearby mortgage company to refer a good credit agency near ya... pay $65, and let them contact the collection agency.

If the collection agency can't provide proof you're making payments, or an account history, the credit bureaus will wipe that from your report completely. =)

contest it through the credit bureaus. if the balance is incorrect then that needs to be verified and the bureaus will need to report the correct info. if the collection agency fails to respond they'll remove it from your credit until the collection agency gets off their ass to report it.

drew: if it's removed it can still be re-added back, it's only off until the creditor responds back... theres a chance they will update their info at some point.

I tried to dispute it once with Transunion-Equifax, and just never heard back from them. And of course, could never get a hold of a human being to talk to afterwards either. That was $14 gone, or what ever it costs for it.

And detoxed, I dunno if it's the same there as it is here, but by law here, they have to accept payments. They don't have a choice but to just take it and wait until the next month.

There's a statute of limitations somewhere in there, if they haven't reported in 3 years, it can pretty much be taken completely off, or so the people tell me.

On a side note, it shouldn't be affecting your credit that much, most lenders only care about the last 2 or so years of collections.

Government loans usually don't even require payment of them, if they are over a year.

Won't affect score, only used for adding tradelines for minimum required for lending. =)

try your bank, if not try first premier or bank1. you'll pay a ton of activation and membership fees to start off but it'll help with your credit. or you could always try a secured credit card as well.

I do underwriting for a mortgage company.

When i come across a file with horrid credit, even a past BK or forclosure, all we have to do is condition them for 3 tradelines verified for 12mo with satisfactory payments.

it can be anything like a electric bill saying you had electric for 12mo and payed on time, etc.

we lend to scores as low as like 520, but to get anything 90% or better you will need to have a score of atleast 600+

question for you credit experts... I had a lot of bad credit in 95 this year is now 7 years... will the credit issues be removed this year on their own, or is there anything I need to do to make sure it's removed as it's suposed to be gone after 7 years.

Crockett...and anyone else that cares
I just cleaned up my credit this year and found out something pretty cool. If you have any bad accounts that have been closed for a few months or more showing up on your credit report you can call the company that issued you the credit (name and number will be on the report) and ask them to verify your balance or address. Odds are that they will say that you are no longer in their system, on average you get removed from their system after 90 days of closing an account. If you aren't in their system anymore then all you have to do is log into wherever you got your online report and file a dispute for the that company. Just say that the adress is wrong or that you didn't miss that many payments, it doesn't matter since they will not be able to verify this so the information by law will have to be pulled from your report. I did this to three companies and it worked great, however one fall back is that these were my oldest accounts so by having those removed I lost alot of credit history which sucked since your score is highly based on the amount of years you have had credit. All in all though this raised my score between 25 and 40 ponits at the three different agencies.

As for Crocketts question on the seven years.....I have no idea but this should work if it doesn't automatically come off.

save yourself the money and do it yourself. you actually save money since places like myfico.com will give you access to dispute them online. equifax has to be done by phone unless you sign up at their site.

if you sign up at myfico.com, theres a promotional code "valuedcustomer" that gives you 10% off your purchase.

I just cleaned up my credit this year and found out something pretty cool. If you have any bad accounts that have been closed for a few months or more showing up on your credit report you can call the company that issued you the credit (name and number will be on the report) and ask them to verify your balance or address. Odds are that they will say that you are no longer in their system, on average you get removed from their system after 90 days of closing an account. If you aren't in their system anymore then all you have to do is log into wherever you got your online report and file a dispute for the that company. Just say that the adress is wrong or that you didn't miss that many payments, it doesn't matter since they will not be able to verify this so the information by law will have to be pulled from your report. I did this to three companies and it worked great, however one fall back is that these were my oldest accounts so by having those removed I lost alot of credit history which sucked since your score is highly based on the amount of years you have had credit. All in all though this raised my score between 25 and 40 ponits at the three different agencies.

As for Crocketts question on the seven years.....I have no idea but this should work if it doesn't automatically come off.
it wouldnt be smart of them to close an account that owes them money.... i guess only late payments could be taken care of this way.
