Credit Repair You Can Do Yourself (part 2 of 2)

http://www.bromotravelindo.com

Decide on a spending ceiling on your credit card. Putting a cap on how much you can spend is always a good thing. Having a record that you phoned your credit card issuer to limit your card's spending limit is often taken as a sign that you don't want to spend more than a certain limit. The limit is usually assumed to be how much you earn. This speaks of discipline and foresight. Definitely worth doing.

Up the limit on the credit card you're using. On the other end of the credit card spectrum is increasing your card's spending ceiling. When you successfully persuade your credit card issuer to jack up your limit, that is taken to mean that the issuer has decided you are trustworthy, which often means your income is stable and can support the needed payments. This will reflect nicely on your credit status.

Complain if you're paying a student loan. When paying up for a student loan, contact the student loan ombudsman, or the office handing your loan payments. You have to do this before you phone your creditor, because those who provide student loans have to make the payment choices convenient to those who borrow them. If you are persuasive enough, you might be fortunate to have the records of late payments removed from your account. This is a good thing. You want as few bad marks on your credit status, as much as possible.

The tips listed here are not at all exhaustive. You are encouraged to look for more tips in shouldering and pulling off your credit repair yourself, without resorting to paying off a company that offers to improve your credit report or standing for a fee.

As has been mentioned before, most likely they are scams. Visit government and non-government websites, which are non-profit in nature, for more information.
