Author: Alex Nebwalz






This is how to fix my credit reports. Take a moment and read how you can clean bad credit by correcting errors on bad or poor credit reports.

1. Fix your bad or poor credit reports, it is not that hard. Make a note of the erroneous entries in the report.

2. Send this along with anything that can aid in showing why these are erroneous. This begins a research of the erroneous entries. The mailing address will be on the report. This will begin the process to fix your credit reports.

3. They are required to reply in a limited time with a response to your mail so send this via certified or registered mail. It is good to be able to prove when you sent your mail.

4. Send them to your creditor also. The address which concerns a dispute will not be the same as the one you send your bill to, check your statement to get the correct address. By putting in a little effort to create these letters you will accomplish your goal to fix your credit report.

If the dispute has information which is personal, like your current address, then you will need to include verifying information such as a copy of your driver’s license or utility statement along with your letter. Upon the start of the investigation they will contact the creditor to verify the information regarding the dispute. If not verifiable it has to be removed. Once the investigation is finished the agency must mail you a copy of the changes for free.

If any of your disputes are resolved, you are allowed to ask the agency to mail a new report to anyone who has received your credit report in the last six months. Not only will this help fix your credit report, if you were turned down recently this may get you that credit you were seeking.

Tip: If you send this to the creditor first and allow time the dispute may be resolved and you will not need have to send it to the bureaus.

If the report comes back stating the original report data is correct, they have to provide details which include the name, phone number and address of the one who made the report. Double check the address you used to send to the creditor. You should start another investigation if you do not agree. This will continue your efforts to fix your credit report.

By giving it some effort and sending letters, and if you are patient and persistent and allow some time and follow through when needed to you WILL be saying, “YES! I can fix my credit report!
