Credit Score – Problems and Their Ways Out

27

Many people face financial crises at some time in their lives. Whether the crisis is caused by personal or family illness, the loss of a job, or simply just overspending, it can seem overwhelming. But often, it can be overcome.

The ability to buy a home or a car, to get a loan or a credit card is greatly reduced by a low credit score. A poor credit rating can even affect the rate you pay for car insurance, or your ability to get the cell phone you want. First, check your spending. Where does all your money go? You need to take a serious look at your finances to figure out why you currently have a poor credit rating.

Lenders analyze your credit scores to determine whether or not to approve a home mortage, a car purchase and nearly all other types of loans. Before lending you money, creditors want to determine how much of a risk you are. Credit scores help them do that, and the higher your score, the less risk they feel you'll be.

You can improve your credit scores by taking a close look at your credit reports and charting a plan of action to improve them.

Always pay your bills on time. Late payments play a major role in driving down your score. If you have past-due bills now, get current and stay that way. Contact your creditors as soon as you know you will have a problem paying bills on time. If your situation is serious, see a legitimate, non profit credit counselor. Avoid the scam artists who promise a quick reversal of your credit problems.

Keep your credit card balances low. High debt-to-credit-limit ratios drive your scores down. Pay off debt, don't move it around. Don't close unused accounts, because zero balance might help your score. Don't open new accounts that you don't need as a quickie approach to altering your debt-to-credit-limit ratios. That can lower your score.

Time is the only thing that can improve length of your credit history, but you can manage it wisely: Don't open several new accounts in a short period, especially if your credit history is less than three years. Adding accounts too rapidly sends up a red flag that you might not be able to handle your credit responsibly.

Several credit inquiries during a short period means you are attempting to open multiple new accounts, and that lowers your credit scores. Credit scoring software usually recognizes when you are shopping for a single loan within a short period of time, such as a home loan. If multiple inquiries are necessary, have them pulled as closely together as possible. Checking your own credit report does not affect your scores.

Get smart about your finances. Do not get lured into 0 car finance promises – read about pros and cons of 0 car finance.

Ah no! It is our words here on Guido Fawkes that are at this very being collated by some night-shift goon in MI5, with 'risk' points being awarded to each contributor using re-manufactured credit scoring software.

So many points for so many inflammatory remarks, and onto the 'watch list' you go!

Cell PhonesYou may place your personal cell phone number on the National Do Not Call Registry. The registry has accepted cell phone numbers since it opened for registrations in June 2003. There is no deadline to register a home or cell phone number on the Registry. You may have received an email telling you that your cell phone is about to be assaulted by telemarketing calls as a result of a new cell phone number database; however, that is not the case. Federal Communications Commission regulations prohibit telemarketers from using automated dialers to call cell phone numbers. -food for thought-JR]]>
