My credit was shot. I
needed a car, but was turned down for the credit to buy one. I couldn’t live where I wanted to, because I
could only rent from private owners who didn’t check my credit (or gave me a
break when they heard my sob story) and I was even paying astronomical
automobile insurance rates—all due to my poor credit rating. I knew I had to do something to fix this, or
it was going to haunt me all my life. I
had tried the free credit restoration guides, and frankly, was
overwhelmed. I knew that consumer credit
repair services were available, but I had heard so much about the ones that are
scams that I was afraid, and didn’t really know what to do.
I was talking to a friend at work who seemed to have it all
together. She had just bought a house,
drove a decent car, and seemed to be solvent.
I had even seen her use a credit card at lunch, so I figured she must
have relatively good credit. She told
me, much to my surprise, that just a few years ago; she had been in the same
boat I was now in. She explained that
she used a credit restoration service that really worked, and sent me a link to
Credit-Yogi once she got back to her desk.
It changed my life. Here are some
things I learned that can help you if you are having credit problems:

How Do Credit
Restoration Services Work?
The thing with credit restoration services is the expertise
they bring to the table. Not only do
they know the steps to take to evaluate your credit, they act as a liaison
between your creditors and you. They
have an established relationship with creditors and know what they can and
cannot do to help you. A benefit of the
knowledge they possess in their field of expertise and their established
relationship with creditors is their ability to work with creditors to get the
best settlements possible for you. They
can often get arrears reduced by reducing or even eliminating some late fees
and even interest. Further, they can
then help you to repair credit ratings and rebuild creditworthiness.
Steps to Rebuilding
Credit
In order to rebuild your credit, you not only have to work
out a payment plan with creditors and repay what you owe them, you must also
reestablish yourself as being creditworthy.
I found out that in order to rebuild my credit, credit card use was
necessary. It just had to be responsible
credit card use, and in my case, that meant secured credit card debt, which I
could get despite my poor credit score. Credit-Yogi
advised me to get one that reported to all 3 credit agencies, and that helped
to raise my credit score. Further, you
can join a credit union, get a retail credit card, become an authorized user on
the credit account of a responsible person (that credit card’s use, even if you
never use it personally, will reflect on your credit report) and get a small
installment loan (even if it has to be secured), and maintain a good income to
debt ratio.
