fania reikowsky asked:


I have recently paid off everything on my credit report. My credit score is slowly creeping up. I, like a lot of people, screwed up my credit when I was younger and am paying for it now. My Scores range from 579 – 618. Can someone give me some feedback please?

How do I fix my credit and make sure my unpaid debt is taken off of my credit report?

I am getting sick of my bad credit ruining everything I try to do. At this point I am finally able to pay off my debt in order to fix this problem. I have heard stories of people paying off their debt but the company leaving them as unpaid on their credit report. I DONT want this to happen. How do I go about paying everything off while making sure it is taken off my credit report for good? How long does it take your score to change after you paid everything off?

What will my credit report show if I choose to settle an old credit card account with a debt collector?

Bear E asked:


I would like to settle a few closed credit accounts that have been charged off and bought out by debt collectors. The collection agency is offering me a discounted rate to pay off this account. If I choose this option, will my credit report eventually show this account closed and paid off, as stated by the agency?

I have 100% credit and 0% debt on my credit report. What does this mean? Im young 21 and im just really starting to really look at this stuff. And I really have no idea what all this means.

Ashlyn asked:


I am really trying to build up my credit, but I cant seem to get approved for any credit cards simply because I dont have any credit. I have checked to make sure there arent blemishes on my credit report. I just have 0 credit. What can I do?

What matters more the credit score or the contents of your credit report?

roxine seesholtz asked:


If I have a good credit score but still have unpaid collection accounts on my credit report will lenders expect me to pay those before they would give me a mortgage? Or if my credit score is high does that mean they won’t really care about much else?

Can I tell a credit card company to report positive comments to my credit report?

*JC* asked:


I payed off 2 credit cards out of four. Can I contact those two credit card companies and ask if they can report positive comments to the credit bureau to raise my score? Or do they automatically do that? I’m trying to raise my score. If you have any tips please share them with me. Thank you.

I no longer have a credit card and every site I go to asks me to purchase my credit report. Is there anyway that I can get my report without using a credit card?

How bad will my credit report be affected if I open and close a credit card?

Monday, September 21st, 2009
Moris asked:


When I go shopping, the store asks me if I want to save xx% off my purchase by signing up for a credit card. How bad will it affect my credit score if I sign up to get the discount. Pay it all off right away and canceling right after that? My first credit card received was in 2001 and I never plan on cancelling it.
How bad would it affect my credit score if I do it often?
