  Bad Credit — Avoiding the Run-around

May 29, 2006
 
Anybody with bad credit looking for lenders or credit card providers online would most probably be faced with a myriad of re-sellers that would only provide you the list of lenders if you paid them a certain amount of money for their “e-list”. These re-sellers would promise you a list of all the best lenders at the very best rates and that the list is actually classified for some reason or another to make the credit providers list seem very exclusive. Some would even go as far to say that the list is restricted only to a few users to “scare” the user into believing that the list must be bought soon or the offer would lapse.

These re-sellers will then sell you a list filled to the brim with affiliate links to banks or lending institutions that would earn them even more money. Chances are that the list aren't even a list of bad credit lenders, however it is just a list of all affiliate banks that the re-seller the webmaster applied in hope that if you apply of the banks in their list, you would be accepted and they would be paid the commission.

Many users unknowingly fall into this trap and spend their hard earned money to buy these useless lists. Little do they know that all this information is freely available at most reputable sites like http://www.creditrelease.com. The most obvious difference between an reputable site and a dodgy re-seller site would be the information that they provide to help you in learning more about borrowing with bad credit and also additional information about how to get you out of the bad credit rut. Good sites would be very willing to share information and also recommend high quality lenders however dodgy sites would require you to buy the information while making you believe that the information is classified or very hard to come by.

The market for bad to marginal credit lenders is now very competitive as more and more lenders are opening up their services to individuals with higher risk profiles. This is based on the fact that there are now less people with good credit scores as there is an increasing trend in people borrowing and in-turn a large majority will encounter issues repaying their debts sooner or later.

A person looking for bad credit solutions for loans or credit cards should take this opportunity and make use of the good market conditions and get loans or cards at favourable rates before the next interest rate hike by the feds. Go to http://www.creditrelease.com for specialized lenders and great advice.

  Credit Repair: Good Credit References

May 25, 2006
 
Unfortunately, there is no magic repair available today. You will need to dedicate a good deal of discipline, patience and effort to the task.

It will be a better idea to start with requesting copies of credit report from each of credit reference agencies. It is well known that Credit reference agencies do not make credit decisions. They only collect and give credit history and identifying information to potential lenders. If needed this information is also provided to potential credit employers.

The three credit reference agencies are Experian, Equifax and TransUnion. Most provinces provide at least one free credit report per year. You can often get your report by making a request through the automated telephone service, by regular mail and by email (in my view, a telephone request is the most easiest to get a credit report). When you get report, you must review it carefully for outdated information and errors. If you feel any problem with your credit report, you must report about it to credit companies in written. Include all supportive documentation you require to substantiate your claim.

If you are like a modern American you should have at least one negative credit reference on your report. These negative credit reference include such credit remarks as:

?Defaults (The lender has doubts that you will repay his owed funds.)
?Late Payments (It is better to pay early.)
?Liens or Judgments (Legal process by a lender to recover payment.)
?Repossessions.
?Bankruptcies.
?Excessive Credit Inquires.

As lenders don't know you personally, they just believe on a system that allows them to make a better credit decisions. If you have been denied credit, it is not a personal matter it is just a business decision. After all, would you lend money to someone who has a history of paying it back late or absolutely not paying it back? Your answer will be no, you will not like to give money to person having negative credit references. Make a plan to develop some good credit references. As you will pay off your credits, your credit report will improve that will change lenders attitude for you.

Let's start with the basics:

?Pay your bills early.
?Stabilize.
?Maintain accounts.
?Keep your head out of the sand.
?Consider online banking.

Each of these steps will help you to build good credit references with time.

  Three Steps To Repairing Your Credit

May 23, 2006
 
Have you spent a little more (or a lot more) than you should have with credit? Most American?s have several credit cards with a few thousand dollars in debt racked up, as well as car or personal loans. When you combine these payments with your every day living expenses, it can be really hard to get yourself out of debt. Here are 3 steps you can take right now, to get on the road to repairing your credit.

1. Thanks to changes in federal laws, every citizen in the United States is now eligible for a free credit report every year. It used to be you had to be denied credit with a company before you could obtain a free report, now you can request one each year to keep on top of what?s being put in your credit report. This allows you to find errors and fix them before they cost you your good credit reputation. Order a copy of your credit report to determine how severe your financial situation is. You may think that you have bad credit, but your credit report may show otherwise, and vice versa. If your report shows a lower score than you would like, you can then start taking steps to improving the situation.

2. Investigate the credit report thoroughly and look for errors. You would be amazed at how many people have found accounts on their reports that they have never had in their name. The usual errors are credit card accounts that are showing open when you?ve paid them off and closed the account, and this appears to be money available to you that hurts your overall credit score. You can fix these errors by writing to each of the companies that have reported information in error, and asking them to correct it immediately. Save a copy of all correspondence and seek the advice of the credit reporting agencies if necessary. Once you get the errors corrected, you may be happy with your new credit score!

3. Fix your long term credit situation. Once the errors have been corrected from your credit report, chances are you still have quite a bit of debt you need to get rid of in order to fully improve your credit rating and get yourself out of debt. The first thing you absolutely must do on the journey to repairing your credit is ?STOP USING CREDIT CARDS?. If you have them, get rid of them! You must work at paying off the existing debt, and it will only be worth your time and effort if you stop adding to that debt by continuing to spend using your credit cards.

Consider a Loan to Consolidate Credit

If you are still able to, you might consider obtaining a loan to pay off each of your individual credit cards. Doing this will help you because it changes your monthly expenses from several, individual credit card payments, each with their own interest rates and finance charges, to a single monthly loan payment, with just one interest rate. You should also accept a loan with high interest in this case, if it?s all you are able to get, if it means paying off ALL of your existing credit card debt. Why? For the simple fact that having a single monthly payment with high interest is still going to save you money over the long term than having four or five credit cards with their own interest rates and finance charges that are added, month after month. Your payment will go further on a single loan payment than when it is sent to individual credit cards, regardless of the interest rate on the loan.

  Time To Start Using Those 0% Credit Cards

May 23, 2006
 
It would have been unthinkable just a decade ago, but now it is commonplace in the UK to hear of zero per cent credit cards. Brought about by fierce competition, both from UK and American lenders, and also by historically low interest rates, zero per cent credit cards have become extremely popular. Today, it is almost impossible to find a lender that does not offer some form of zero percent credit card. They simply have to if they want to compete in the business as it is run today. However, before you start signing up for a zero per cent credit card, you should be aware that there are different types of zero per cent card and you will need to be aware of what it is you want to use the card for before you decide which type is right for you. The first thing to consider is a cash advance. These are typically charged at higher than normal interest rates and it is still extremely unusual to find a credit card that will give you a cash advance at zero per cent. So if you are looking for zero per cent cash, then it is unlikely that a credit card is going to give it to you. Zero per cent purchases however, is something you might have a better chance of getting. There are now a number of cards on the market place that offer customers zero percent on new purchases. So if you would like to for example buy something large and expensive, and cannot get a good financing deal to fund the purchase, then perhaps buying it on a zero per cent on purchases credit card would be a good way to go. You will be charged no interest at all, and will have the entire interest free period, usually of six to nine months to pay back the amount without incurring any interest charges. Probably the most common form of zero per cent for a credit purchase is on balance transfers. So if you find yourself paying a lot of interest on existing credit card balances, then you could look into transferring this balance onto a new credit card that offers you zero percent to do so. This has the potential of saving you hundreds of pounds in interest payments. Finally, if you are one of those customers that are in the habit of paying off your credit card bill in full every month, then you will not need a zero per cent card at all. This is because you already pay no interest. In this case you would be better of looking for a card that offers some cash back or other form of reward rather than a zero per cent interest. Now is probably the best time to take a closer look at an interest free credit card. More and more credit card companies and banks are now starting to draw back from offering such large introductory 0 per cent deals. More credit card companies are increasingly coming under pressure to reduce the amount of 0% credit card they offer due to the fact they do not make any profit from them.
