Obtaining credit
can be incredibly easy or extremely difficult. Once you have
established credit, it can open doors of opportunity you never
even considered being a possibility. Credit can allow you to
take the dream vacation of a lifetime, drive a luxury car, dress
in the latest fashions, achieve the American dream of owning
your own home, or starting your very own business.
The fact is, now
that society has rapidly shifted into the fast-lane of being
a cash-less society, it would be almost unthinkable not to have
credit. People who have the misfortune of losing their good
credit rating in today's world, will most certainly immediately
begin to feel like social outcasts. It is a very traumatic experience
when people find out something is wrong with their credit. Millions
of people have been, and will continue to be notified they now
have bad credit. Many don't seem to understand how it all came
about! What they do know, however, is that all of a sudden they
aren't as well-off as someone who still has their good credit.
Without good credit,
people soon discover it's difficult to just keep up with the
no-frills, everyday existence items that are needed. Unless
an individual knows how to improve, increase and repair their
own credit, they will have to overcome many obstacles. Most
people don't have the slightest idea of where to begin. But
once you read the following "GUERRILLA TACTICS" you
will learn how to quickly improve and repair your good credit
starting Today!
To Put
Your Plan In Motion You Must Know Who The Credit Reporting Agencies
Are.
Credit Bureaus
are extremely powerful organizations. Going against a credit
reporting agency is almost like a military encounter. Fortunately,
once you're armed with the Guerrilla Tactics provided in this
report, you can rise to the occasion of winning both the battle
and the war! In the beginning it may appear as if Credit Bureaus
have the advantage.
After all, if
you are an adult living in America, the overwhelming odds are
that a credit bureau somewhere knows who you are, where you
live, the name of every employer you ever worked for, how many
times you applied for credit, how many times you were denied
or approved, and how many time you were late in making a payment.
Similarly, it's
all in a credit report that once accessed by a subscriber, will
tell them whether or not you should receive additional credit.
The ultimate decision is arrived at by looking at the entries
in your file.

To Achieve Your
Credit Goals, You Have To Obtain Your Credit Report And Then
Attach With Precision!
There are approximately
5,000 credit reporting and collection agencies operating in
the United States today. If a credit problem exists it may or
may not be brought to your attention. For example, damaging
inquiries and variations may appear in your file without your
knowledge. However, if you apply for credit and there is a problem
whereby you were rejected, you would be notified by the lender
and told that the credit application denial was the result of
a credit bureau report. If you either know or suspect you have
a credit problem, there is no way to know what you are up against
unless you get a copy of your credit report. This is where any
major roadblock to getting credit will surface.
Even before you
attempt to obtain or increase credit lines, you should first
obtain all credit reports that are available on you. You can
accomplish that by calling for one or more of the credit bureaus
listed and asking for your credit report. There may be a small
fee for this service. However, if your application for credit
is denied by a creditor, then you can receive a credit report
at no charge from the credit reporting agency.
We recommend that
you do not wait until a credit card company, bank, or other
lender denies your application for credit, before you obtain
the report. Even if you don't suspect a problem, you should
get a credit report on yourself just to identify any false of
incorrect information that has been entered into your file.
Damaging computer errors, human entry errors, incorrect social
security numbers, addresses, employers, and income errors happen
all the time. At the very least, you should make certain you
haven't become the victim of computer error.
Accelerating
Your Credit Approval By Matching & Controlling Connections
Bankers and lenders
in a certain geographic area usually turn to one credit reporting
agency. There are many, however, that subscribe to more than
one. That can work in your favor because in many cases your
complete credit history may never be accessed by a credit bureau
located in another area. Your credit file could list multiple
damaging information in one credit report, but never show up
in another! By obtaining your credit reports in advance, you
will know which lender to approach for credit. All you have
to do is ask!
How
To Activate A Banker's Desire To Force Money Into Your Hands!
By applying for
credit through a bank of other lender that subscribes to a credit
reporting agency outside the area, there's every reason to believe
that some damaging information will not appear in your file.
Remember, the only way bankers and lenders can survive is to
extend credit to consumers. By taking steps to sidestep one
credit report that has negative entries, and taking advantage
of another that show you as a good credit risk, creditors will
practically force hard cash into your hand.
Here's
how:
- Obtain a credit
report form one of the credit bureaus to determine if there
are damaging entries that might cause your credit application
to be denied.
- Call several
banks of other lenders and ask the receptionist, etc., which
credit bureau they use in their application approval process.
If the individual tells you they don't know, ask them to find
out.
- Select a bank
or lender that subscribes to a credit reporting agency other
than the one typically used in the area.
- Obtain a credit
report from the credit reporting agency that your selected
lender uses.
- Repeat step
number 4 until you find a report that is favorable to your
and shows the least negative entries.
- The only thing
left for you to do is apply with that bank, lender, or other
creditor that subscribes to the credit bureau that has a credit
report the most favorable to you.
Bulldog
Tactics So Powerful They're Devilish!
When you receive
your credit report, write down every piece of information that
is inaccurate or untrue. Even if an entry is partially true,
you may still want to dispute it. Especially if your credit
report will be improved as a result. Read all of the instructions
on the back of your credit report very carefully. Symbols may
be used for much of the information entered and you will have
to understand each one. It's easy to become confused but a number
you can call if you have a question will be provided.
Here are
steps you can take to have damaging entries removed from your
credit report:
Make a list of
inaccurate or untrue entries that you find in your credit report.
Call the credit
bureau and tell the appropriate person that you want to dispute
an entry you have noted on your credit report.
Don't allow any
credit bureau employee to talk you out of proceeding with your
appeal. To avoid a distracting confrontation, don't even tell
them you want to challenge. They won't initiate any action on
your behalf anyway until they receive your appeal request in
writing.
To initiate the
proper appeal procedure, ask the person you speak with to send
you a "Dispute Form."
Complete the "Dispute
Form" and return it to the credit bureau by certified mail.
When the credit
bureau receives your written dispute request they will then
attempt to verify the dispute you have indicated with the bank,
lender, or creditor responsible for having the damaging information
listed.
You will be notified
of their decision within 30-45 days.
This technique
will work for you to eliminate negative entries from your credit
report for one of two reasons:
Most creditors
don't hang on to old files. They either place them in storage
or throw them out. That means they won't be able to easily verify
your dispute, if at all!
Many other past
creditors simply don't care to waste their time verifying the
accuracy of a credit report that isn't relevant to making money
right here and now!
That is the basis
of why credit repair clinics were so successful when they came
on the scene. They knew form experience that by created a flood
of challenges directly to a credit bureau, sooner or later creditors
who continually received inquiries would become frustrated and
simply not respond. They also knew that if the credit bureau
didn't receive a response from the creditor they mailed an inquiry
to, on your behalf, within 30 days, the damaging remark by law
had to be removed. Thus, a cleaned-up credit report.
Beware
Of Double-Trouble Credit Repair Clinics
"Credit Counseling"
and "Commercial Counseling" services are two completely
different things. Before you sign any papers that end up causing
you even more financial harm, you better know who you are dealing
with! Whereas credit counseling services are generally non-profit,
commercial counseling services (clinics) may charge you 10%-15%
or more of your total debt. Meanwhile, the services provided
by the non-profit agency is basically the same.
"Grand-Slam
Success" Doesn't Happen By Accident!
Just about everyone
at one time or another has experienced some kind of problem
with their cash flow. that's when it became difficult to pay
the monthly bills and keep up with credit obligations. When
that happens, damaging information may begin to appear in your
credit file, and bad times can become even worse. For many people
it becomes difficult, if not impossible to obtain any further
credit, just when there is a desperate need for it.
Unfortunately,
banks, lenders, and other creditors do not extend credit on
the basis of need. Credit can swiftly be taken away form anyone
who cannot demonstrate they are a good credit risk. Most people
can be successful in overcoming credit rejections that have
resulted due to damaging information showing up on a credit
report. The problem that most people run into, is that they
become desperate and will resort to anything and anyone that
comes along with false promises. Then they find themselves in
deeper trouble because they've handed out more money they don't
have, to a crook who gives them nothing in return.
Giving yourself
a grand-slam, clean-credit slate doesn't happen by accident.
There are a number of techniques and methods that can be utilized
to create or restore a good credit record. The following information
is being provided to you on the basis that is have been successfully
used by others. None of the information is being recommended
as techniques you should use. If you decide to use any of the
information contained in this report, it is recommended that
you first consult with an attorney to obtain legal advice.
Tactics
& Techniques That Make Collection Agencies Beg For Mercy!
The "Get-Off-My-Back"
Wage Earner Plan! Using Federal Bankruptcy Act, Chapter XIII
- Wage Earner Plan, you can file for immediate relief form unmerciful
creditors and collection agencies. To be eligible, your monthly
bills must exceed your income, and your major income must be
earned from a salary or commission. You can file for the Wage
Earner Relief Plan simply by contacting your attorney or the
U.S. District Court nearest you. Ask to speak to the person
who administers the plan.
Generally within
three days of filing, a restraining order will be issued to
all of your creditors. Which Will:
- Stop creditors,
collection agencies, lenders, or anyone else who has been
notified from contacting or harassing you any further.
- Immediately
stop all action against you that had been initiated by creditor.
(Note: For this relief plan to work, it must be accepted by
a majority of your creditors. If the majority agrees to the
plan, all others must comply.
- Immediately
stop interest and late charges from accumulating any further.
You Can Seek Injunctive
Relief That Forces Credit Bureaus To Stop Reporting Negative
Credit Information From Your File!
"Injunctive
Relief" is an effective legal maneuver that can permanently
remove damaging information from your credit report. You will,
however, probably require the services of an attorney. This
is how it works! If you can clearly demonstrate that information
appearing in your credit report is inaccurate and is damaging
your character, credibility, or ability to obtain credit, you
can seek Injunctive Relief through the courts.
Once relief is
granted, a Judge can order a Credit Bureau to immediately stop
reporting any damaging information appearing in your credit
report as outlined in the order, until such time as a trial
or investigation is conducted. After you, or your attorney,
succeed in persuading a Judge to issue an order for Injunctive
Relief, you will have from that moment on until the conclusion
of a trial or investigation, to obtain new credit.
The
"Here's Johnny!" Change Of Address Method
Here is another
way you can eliminate damaging entries from your credit report:
- You can magically
appear in a completely different part of the country from
where you really live, simply by creating a new address for
yourself. Just ask a friend or relative to receive your mail
at their address and have everything forwarded to that address.
The further away, the better. If you don't know anyone that
lives well out of the area, rent a mail drop location. All
of your mail will be forwarded by the mail drop to any address
you like.
- After you
have established a new address, you can request a credit report
from the bureau that services that particular area. Apply
with lenders that use this bureau. What you will generally
find is that the credit bureau you are now dealing with will
have a limited ability to verify negative items appearing
elsewhere.
Check
Bankruptcy Off Your Credit File, By Checking It Out!
The following
method of manipulation works (according to some who have used
it) when combined with the precious "change of address"
method. Just follow these next five steps:
- Discuss the
technique with an attorney who is willing to help.
- Because bankruptcy
is overseen by federal courts, bankruptcy files are kept in
the federal archives.
- Before you
apply for credit have your attorney request to have your file
"checked-out" form the federal archives.
- Using your
out-of-state address as described in the previous "change
of address" method, follow the normal procedure used
for appealing any damaging information appearing on your credit
report.
- As long as
your attorney has your bankruptcy file, a credit reporting
agency will not be able to verify its contents. If they cannot
make verifications within 30 days, they must remove the damaging
information form your credit report. Because credit bureaus
can request an extension, your attorney may have to repeat
the process several times. It becomes a question of who will
tire first. According to those-in-the-know, it's usually the
credit bureau.
Tell
Your Side Of The Story And "Smash" Damaging Entries
Another way to
challenge and neutralize entries that appear on your credit
report is by taking advantage of the "100-Word Consumer
Statement." This method allows you to tell everyone who
obtains your report your side of the story. A simple statement
may be all it takes to convince a bank, lender or other creditor
that a negative piece of information that is appearing in your
file, was nothing more than an unfortunate incident that couldn't
be prevented at the time.
For example, you
have been laid-off with hundreds of other workers and suddenly
found yourself out of work. By telling your side of the story,
a lender will understand why you had problems paying off your
credit obligations. Be certain to be sincere, honest, and not
too wordy. Never express anger or hatred. Allow creditors to
give you the benefit-of-a-doubt, and the credit you deserve.
Ask the credit bureau about placing a 100-word consumer statement
into your file.
How
To Remove A Judgment Through A "Motion To Vacate"
People have reportedly
removed damaging entries (such as judgments) from their credit
files by using the following method:
- Hire an attorney
who is willing to help you with your goal of having damaging
entries removed form your credit file.
- Ask your attorney
to file a motion of Service of Process for the purpose of
having a damaging judgment entry removed from your credit
file. It may be a weak argument for sure, but in this motion,
your attorney will argue that the process was served improperly.
People have reported that this technique will ultimately work
in your favor.
- By filing
a motion of "Service of Process" you are forcing
a creditor to appear in court with an attorney to prove the
initial legal process was done properly.
- This legal
maneuver works in your favor because, if the lender responsible
for the judgment (for example) has been paid, why would he
even want to go through the time and expense of showing up?
- If you show
up and the creditor doesn't, you will win your case through
default. Then you will have the legal ammunition necessary
to have the damaging judgment information removed from your
credit file.
How To Unconditionally
Force Credit Bureaus To Quickly Give You The Advantage By Placing
Positive Information Into Your Credit Report
According to Federal
Laws enforced by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), if a credit
report results in a debtor's application for credit being denied,
that person has the right to add information that will show
a more positive credit history. All you have to do is contact
the credit bureau of your choice and ask them to contact a list
of banks, lenders, or other creditors whose names you will provide,
for the purpose of having the credit information they provide
on you added to your credit file. there may be a small fee,
but the good news is that you will practically be able to force
a credit reporting agency to improve the substance of your file
by putting positive entries on your credit report.
The only businesses
you should list are those with whom you have had a flawless
credit relationship with. Contact the people on your list and
let them know a credit reporting agency will be calling or send
them a questionnaire. After information has been received and
verified, the bureau can add positive items to your credit report.
The
Equal Credit Opportunity Act & Women
Under the Equal
Credit Opportunity Act, women have the right to build up their
own credit without being discriminated against. Women who do
not apply for credit in their own names are at a distinct disadvantage.
In the event of a divorce or death of a mate, there wouldn't
be a credit history reflecting any personal contributions. Under
the Equal Credit Opportunity Act there is not reason for women
to lose their identity when they are married. You can become
familiar with all of your rights as a woman by writing to the
following address and asking for your FREE copy of "WOMEN
& CREDIT HISTORIES." Federal Trade Commission Washington,
