Bad Credit can happen to anyone. Whether you are a college student with credit card debt, or a recent divorce’ who’s financial landscape has taken a drastic turn.
We understand that no matter how it happened, dealing with bad credit can be psychologically and financially tough. L.A. LAW is here to help people suffering from bad credit.
You may believe the answer to this question is obvious. Some people with credit scores in the mid-high 600’s think they have bad credit scores. They are surprised to find that their score is actually “fair” as opposed to bad.
First, you must understand there are different credit scoring models, using different criteria and data, to arrive at your number.
Nevertheless, there are some generally accepted credit score ranges generally recognized as bad.
For example, most major credit scoring models follow a 300 to 850 range. With this model, the lower your score, the worse your credit. Furthermore, you can generally assume anything below 600 is a bad credit score. So let’s look at some credit score tiers.
With a bad credit score, the consequences are simple, you will end up paying more in fees and interest. Remember, the higher the number, the better your credit score will be.
If your credit score is lower than 620, you will discover that:
Negative items on your credit report can play a substantial role in your life, especially if you have a bankruptcy.
Your credit report contains information about where you live, how you pay your bills, and whether you’ve been sued or arrested, or have filed for bankruptcy. Credit reporting companies sell the information in your report to creditors, insurers, employers, and many other businesses. These business use that information to evaluate your applications for credit, insurance, employment, or renting an apartment.
It should come as no surprise that mistakes on your credit report can have a devastating impact on your life. The Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) is there to protect the general public. It does so by promoting the accuracy and privacy of information in the files of the nation’s credit reporting companies.
The FCRA has been amended several times since its passage in 1970. It is primarily aimed at the the three (3) major credit bureaus, Experian, Equifax and TransUnion, because of the volume of information those bureaus collect and sell.
Credit reporting agencies (CRA’s), like Experian, Equifax and Transunion, are responsible for gathering, processing and archiving credit information on consumers. CRAs have information on more than 200 million Americans just like you.
The agencies collect information on every consumer’s use of credit and their bill-paying habits. The data comes from “information suppliers,” or any business that extends credit to customers. Information also comes from public records like court judgments and bankruptcy filings.
Moreover, as many data collecting companies do, they sell your information for huge profits. Businesses like banks, management companies, and various lenders use that information to help make decisions about granting loans or credit.
Keep in mind, CRA’s don’t make decisions on whether or not you get a loan. That decision is made by banks, credit unions, mortgage companies or card companies you apply to. The information from the CRA is simply used to set the interest rate and conditions for your loan.
Should you hire a professional to help you fix your credit? The short answer for most people is “yes”.
Searching the internet, you will find many websites encouraging you NOT to hire professionals to help fix your credit. Sure, there are a few untrustworthy businesses out there, but there are plenty of good ones too.
But I want you to take an even closer look at those businesses and websites urging you to do-it-yourself. If you do, you will notice something interesting. You will see that financial institutions are responsible for putting out that information. Why is that important? Because they want to delay,frustrate, and put you in a position to fail. They don’t want you to improve your credit score because they make more money when you pay a higher interest rate!
In other words, yes, most people should hire a trusted professional to help them fix their credit. Nevertheless, you should do your homework and higher a reputable advocate.
Absolutely! Is it easy? No! Think about it-if it were so easy-more people would have good credit, right?
The information out there advising you that credit repair is easy, and you only have to follow a few steps, are fooling you. For example, what happens when you send your dispute letter and the CRA refuses to act? What do you do? What sort of leverage do you have? Believe me, they are going to make you earn it. If you can’t back up your stern talk with action, you will get nowhere fast. Hiring a law firm will send a clear message that you are serious about your credit.
After spending more than six years with two prominent Connecticut defense law firms and one insurance company, Lawyer Twillie (LT) experienced a change of heart and decided to dedicate the rest of his professional career representing victims, not big businesses.
