ShortBus Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 You might want to read up on "active duty alert" provisions of the FCRA. Though I'm not really sure how valuable it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyjaytx Posted December 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Yea i read up on it. Doesnt it put out an alert to all CRA's that you are out of the country for fraud protection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquamarinebug Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 WOW does this website work!!My question:Now that I have been approved for a 250.00 fingerhut card and a 750.00 Household Bank card - when do they start reporting it on my credit report(s)?! I have used both - and I haven't seen them yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isislc Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Well, I know that the hsbc card will report 3 days after it is due. My bill is due on the 28th and reports on the 31st of every month for 31 days or the 28th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aquamarinebug Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Still no reporting...almost 30 days....and thank you for the congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isislc Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Quick warning, HSBC is slow right now. I am still waiting on my card to report for last month. There has been lots of complaining on different boards that they have not reported yet. But normally the 3 days after my bill is due still holds. This is the first time it just didn't report, which is surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovebug5 Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 HSBC is incredibly, incredibly slow right now. They are over 30 days behind on my reporting, which is angering me slightly. They haven't reported since February - so I'm showing no payment activity for March and April on two CR's and for Feb/March and April on one. Ugh!

Hopefully that means the other two are coming. I've noticed that a number of my accounts, on TU especially, haven't been updated since February.

It must be a TU thing...Because February seems to have been the stop date on multiple accounts for me. Ugh! Wonder if that's why my FAKO isn't moving.
