Money in a minute. What is credit repair? Credit repair is a lot like auto repair. Your car breaks down, you bring it to the shop to change worn parts and clogged filters. Just like your car, your credit can run rough after it can gather mistakes that can sit to it. Maybe, a debt you never rang up, maybe someone with a similar name never paid their bills and it inventeranly got attached to your credit card. That happens more than you might think. The federal government estimates that 1 in 5 Americans have a mistake on at least one of their credit reports. That’s right, that’s more than one credit report. Each of the big three credit bureaus, Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, has one with your name on it. And you can get your report free once a year and dispute any errors. Learn how on Debt.com and get your credit firing on all cylinders once again.
What is Credit Repair and Why Do You Need It?
While you might trust the credit bureaus to maintain accurate information in your credit reports, sadly, errors happen. Mistakes on your credit report can decrease your score, leading to rejected loans and higher interest rates. It’s up to you to take steps to keep your credit running smoothly. That’s where credit repair comes in.
