How It Works
Deleting bad credit is not as difficult as it sounds, in fact the truth is you can do it for yourself, but unless you know
who to contact or exactly what to say to them, you probably won't get very good results.
You see in
order to put something on your credit report your creditors must follow a law called the Fair Credit
Reporting Act (F.C.R.A.). This law was passed in 19 77 to protect your rights and make sure that all the
information that is being reported to the credit bureaus about you is accurate and verifiable. If the
creditors (G.M.A.C. or Macys for example) do not follow this law when they report negative
information about you, they could be liable for a major lawsuit.
What we do is challenge these
creditors to prove that they followed the law (F.C.R.A.) and protected your rights when reporting
negative information about you. If they did not follow this law correctly (most of the time they don't)
then they must delete the negative items or face a lawsuit. None of these companies want to go to
court because they know they are not reporting the information correctly. It doesn't cost them
anything to delete these items off your credit report but it could cost them thousands of dollars in
court fees if they don't.
Whether or not you really missed a payment on your loan, filed Bankruptcy, or
had a Civil Judgment put on your credit isn't an issue. What matters to the credit bureaus and to us is
whether or not the information was reported according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act. If it wasn't
reported correctly then it must be removed, period.
