Use Online Bill Pay to Boost Credit (WFMJ Youngstown)
Before beginning a full-scale attack on one’s bad credit and repair of a negative credit report the person must first address each of the negative items and resolve them. Resolution may take many forms, which we will explore here. From a credit repair standpoint the significant starting point is “closing the book” on each of the bad credit items on the credit report. A horrible but old and closed bad credit item most often gets viewed better than an open current bad credit item. Believe it or not, a viable resolution method turns out to be a Chapter 7 bankruptcy. In this context the bankruptcy paves the way to the first step of credit repair by putting an end to the old bad credit items. While bankruptcy adds it’s own significantly terrible credit reporting item, bankruptcy by definition will be “resolved” when the case ends. In the early stages of bad a credit incident the easiest and best solution can be catching up on a payment. As with many of the circumstances we will discuss the prior late payment will still appear on the credit report. The important point being discussed in this section is resolving the initial issue. Catching up on a past due payment constitutes resolution. When payments continue delinquent for a long enough time catching up may become out of reach. Negotiating a payment plan with the creditor either directly or with the aid of a credit counselor constitutes resolution of the item for credit repair purposes. Settlement of a debt, even at a fraction of the original amount due, means resolution.

B. If you want to make some money off of the creditor then take them to Small Claims Court. To do this, you will need to call your county courthouse and ask about the proper procedure to follow to get a court date. It's very easy and you can do it all yourself. You'll be asked to fill out one or two simple forms stating your complaint. You may want to write that you wish to remove the item from your credit file since it is not yours and the creditor has no proof that it is your account. After you receive a court date, mark it in your calendar and make sure to attend at the proper time, place and date. Bring in the receipts from the registered mail you used for your disputes along with your phone bill and sue the creditor for your expenses and emotional stress. Remember, if they do not have proof that this is your account you will win and the account will be removed from your credit file! Also, if the creditor is out of state and does not show in court, you win by their default.
