How many times can a debt be assigned?
willingtocope replied to RobinMontrose's topic in Collections
As far as I know, there is no limit. FL may have a law, but I doubt it. -
Paid off cards, credit score crashed
willingtocope replied to GiddyUpGo49's topic in Credit Bureaus/Reports/Scores
There are a bazillion different credit scoring algorithms. The score consumers are allowed to see is the "sucker score". It predicts whether or not a lender will make money off you by charging late fees and interest. Don't sweat it. You did the right thing. Monitor your reports for inaccurate info. Ignore the scores. -
improve credit score through credit builder loan

No. This might help your sucker score but not your mortgage score. -
FICO Score differences between credit reporting agency and lender
willingtocope replied to talha's topic in Credit Repair
There are many different FICO scoring algorithms. The one consumers see is the "sucker" score. It predicts if you will use credit cards and pay interest and occasional late fees. The mortgage broker gets a different model. And, yes, "mortgage shopping" (i.e., multiple inquiries in a short time frame) does lower your mortgage scores. -
Best strategy to raise score to attain morgage?
willingtocope replied to moving4ward's topic in Credit Repair
New credit will help you get new credit cards. Doesn't help so much with a mortgage. The scores that CRA's report to the consumer are "sucker" scores. -

You est approach would be to contact the negatives. Try to negotiate a "pay for delete". Even if they won't deal, pay them off. Wait. In 6 months or so, your scores will climb. Don't take out new credit. -
Business cash cards report AU?
willingtocope replied to Lamiellm's topic in Credit Bureaus/Reports/Scores
In general, if you're not the one responsible for paying the bill, you're probably not going to get a boost in your credit score. On the other hand, if the fine print in your credit card agreement says "if the primary holder doesn't pay the bill, you will"...you might have another problem. How financially secure is your employer? You say these are cash cards? Again, in general, cash cards are not reported as normal credit cards...you can't use them to charge stuff if there's no money in the account. Bottom line...these are probably not going to help your scores even if they do get -
Also, by giving employees access to this account, you've taken it from a "personal" account to a "business" account. Business accounts are not covered by most of the regulations we discuss. You've kind of wandered into the gotcha arena...if you do try to claim its personal, Crap 1 is going to pursue the fraud angle because you have multiple authorized users who are probably not related to you.

Have 550 credit score, need 620 for a home equitly loan
willingtocope replied to Dedikate's topic in Credit Repair
Gee...Kelvin's email address is 4ficorepair @ gmail ...I'm gonna guess he might be the "ethical hacker" in question. Also, while a white hat hacker MIGHT be able to get thru to one of the credit reporting sites, it unlikely he could break into all of them. -
Employee or Private Contractor
willingtocope replied to MikeB35's topic in Is There a Lawyer in the House
Look at https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p1779.pdf ... its probably not a yes or no question. -
"Compose New" then the button that says "source" gives you the paper clip.

The minimum wage/paid-by-the-hour clerk that will enter your disputes into their computer system has a quota. They have to deal with X number of letters per hour. Which means, they only have a limited time to give each letter. When that time is up...they move on to the next. 12 disputes in one letter means they'll probably only do the first 3 or 4 and then move on. On the other hand, if they receive 12 different letters at the same time from what they see as the same person...they might ignore some of them. Bottom line...its a crap shoot. Dispute online if you can.
