FAQ

  • What is a credit score?

  • What is the Fair Credit Reporting Act and why was it created?
    Enacted in 1970 by the United States Federal Government (15 U.S.C. § 1681), this legislation is meant to protect consumers and making sure their information being reporting to credit reporting agencies is private, accurate, and fair.
  • What are the three credit bureaus?
    The 3 main credit reporting agencies are Equifax, Transunion, and Experian.
  • How can I get a copy of my credit report?
    We recommend 3rd party credit monitoring sites. We prefer IdentityIQ, but there are others that are also good sites. We do not recommend sites that provide credit reports for free because they typically do not include all 3 credit bureaus.
  • Why do I need reports from all 3 credit bureaus?
    Each credit bureau has access to different information. As a result, different information creates different scores. The advantage of a 3-bureau report is readily identifying discrepancies: just because you don’t have a collection on one report doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist if another bureau is reporting that collection.
  • If you remove an item from my credit report, does it eliminate the debt?"
    No, but if it is past the statute of limitations for the creditor to file a lawsuit it will be much harder for them to try to collect it from you.
  • If I pay a collection, does it automatically get removed from my credit report?"
    NO! One of the biggest misconceptions among customers is that paying a collection will cause the score to go up. This is not true. In fact, your score is likely to go DOWN.
