Using Credit Repair to Get the Story Right

Errors in your credit reports mean your credit score is telling the wrong story about you. Getting these errors removed is your way to correct the story.

The term credit repair encompasses multiple tactics used to improve your credit. The most popular, credit report repair, is the process of disputing negative items on your credit reports directly with the credit bureaus. Another common tactic involves contacting creditors directly and asking them to stop reporting negative items to the credit bureaus or change the way they are reporting them.

Credit repair also includes things like challenging debts based on rights provided by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), and disputing directly with creditors as described in the Fair Credit Billing Act (FCBA), promising to pay an outstanding debt in exchange for the associated negative item being removed from your credit reports, and more.

Whether you use one or multiple credit repair tactics, credit repair is the process you have to use in order to ensure your right to have an accurate credit story.
