Credit Repair: Do It Yourself Credit Repair May Be Your Best Solution

Credit Report Do-It-Yourself Check-Up
Even if you don’t
have a poor credit history, some financial
advisors and consumer advocates suggest
you review your credit report periodically
- because the information it contains
affects whether you can get a loan or
insurance – and how much you will
have to pay for it.
- to make sure the information is accurate,
complete, and up-to-date before you apply
for a loan for a major purchase like a
house or car, buy insurance, or apply
for a job.
- to help guard against
identity theft.
That’s when someone uses your personal
information – like your name, your
Social Security number, or your credit
card number – to commit fraud. Identity
thieves may use your information to open
a new credit card account in your name.
Then, when they don’t pay the bills,
the delinquent account is reported on
your credit report. Inaccurate information
like that could affect your ability to
get credit, insurance, or even a job.
