Some would suggest that you have to alter your thought process in order to modify your spending patterns. By all means, just change but it's not going to be easy. But, this essay is not meant to change your character. In most cases, this can't be done.
But because of your spending habits, your poor rating is hurting you badly. You are really desperate to improve your rating, and fast. You will now be told how to persuade Credit rating agencies into believing you're on the road to credit worthiness. Just adhere to these seven guideline faithfully, only for the next 90 days. By all means, you can carry on abiding by these even after this, if that is possible.
1. Stick To A Budget
For just the next 90 days, religiously stay within a budget. Control your expenses, for every week. Do not spend on something that is not essential. This must be done for the next 90 days until your rating gets better.
2. Keep Your Payment History In Control
How you settled your credit card dues so far has influenced your Credit rating adversely, right? For the subsequent 90 days, purchase only essential items with your cards and repay card debts on time.
You get noticed by the credit bureau if you possess two to four cards. Instead of having a number of cards with large sums due on all, take out a low-interest loan and settle some of them. Continue with the older cards which count for more points as your rating gets better.
3. Make Payments Before The Due Date
Only for the next 90 days, do not wait till the last minute to pay off loans or bills that are in your credit report. Even if some days of grace are offered the loan will continue to appear on the report, so damaging your score. Dupe the rating agency by paying ahead of time.
4. Don't Pay Only The Smallest Amount Permitted
One more way to dupe the rating agency is to pay more than the least permissible. That way, you pay less interest and owe a smaller amount. Make certain the balance in your card is well under the limit during the next 90 days.
5. Be Shy Of Consolidating Debts
The surest way to alert the credit bureau that you have a problem paying your debts is to repeatedly take loans, to repay older ones. Another alarm bell goes off when you accept fresh cards, enticed by offers. Do debt consolidation carefully, and only as a repair measure, for the next 90 days. Even if you are just getting details on what is being offered, do not reveal personal details, if you can help it.
6. Move Before They Do
In case you are unable to make a payment, call them up and explain and before they let loose their recovery agents on you, which will harm your rating like nothing. When you speak to them, you can bargain more strongly if you have something to propose. Assist them in devising a new payment plan. Given a choice, select a longer payment period if a smaller installment will make it easier for you to repay, while sending a message that you want to repay.
7. Rectify Mistakes In Your Credit Report
At times, errors creep into your credit report. If the mistakes are not rectified early enough, they hurt your credit score. Follow up with the credit bureau to make sure such mistakes stop coming on your credit report. It may be necessary to persuade them regarding the mistake, as people at the bureau may not concur with you on the matter.
Attach your justifications to your report. Still, make sure, not to give the impression that you are finding fault with anyone. Always appear to assume that any errors could have been accidental.
Once the plan is accepted, request that your debt not be informed to the credit bureau. If your record of repayment on the amended plan is good, they may comply with your wish.
Do all this only for the next 90 days and relish the self-confidence and poise it will give you.
In case you want a Credit rating that is higher still, maybe you should increase this 90 day period to 180 days or more.
