Bad credit is a big problem here in the United States. Almost every American has more than ten thousand dollars in credit card debt. We are going to talk about three easy ways to help you credit score. Each of the three tips can help you on all three of the credit bureaus.
1. Dispute Negative Credit on your Report
This is one of most important steps you can do to better your credit. Each negative or incorrect item that is on your account can be disputed. When you dispute an item with the credit Bureau and win they have to remove it from your record thus improving your score.
2. Pay Down your Debit Cards
Go thru all your credit cards and get each ones bill. Once you have there bills pay a little extra on each one until they are at 25% of the available credit line that you have for that card. Doing this will drastically raise your score. You can also use what some people call the snowball effect to pay them off. It works really well.
3. Get a Secure Credit Card with a Bank
Most banks will open a secured credit card with you. This type of card is in the banks favor, but helps your numbers out too. Basically you add a deposit of $500 to a secure bank account and the bank gives you a credit card with that amount as your credit line. Once you buy something then you pay the bank until the account is back up to the initial $500.
