Cost and payment structure is of course important. There are many laws that regulate when and how much credit repair companies can charge. If a credit repair company charges too much or charges you anything prior to performing the service, they are violating the Credit Repair Organizations Act and are likely a scam. Another important factor is expertise. We estimate that 90% of the credit repair companies you find online have limited or no experience and have only moved into this industry after the recent mortgage meltdown.

Credit bureaus, a type of consumer reporting agency, hold a consumer’s credit report in their databases. Credit bureaus have a number of responsibilities under FCRA, including the following:

The three big credit bureaus: Experian, Equifax and TransUnion do not interact with information furnishers directly as a result of consumer disputes. They use a system called E-Oscar. In some areas of the country, however, there are other credit bureaus. For example, in Texas, if a consumer tries to dispute information with Equifax directly, they must go through CSC Credit Services which is linked to the Equifax database.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”What is the difference between FICO score and Vantage score?” tab_id=”1543728158771-2b85b4f9-651e”][vc_column_text]

The 3 major credit bureaus Equifax, Experian and Trans-Union have been using the information in your credit file to calculate a three-digit FICO score for years. FICO is the score is named after Fair Isaac Corporation, the company that pioneered credit scoring models and sells software to the credit bureaus. FICO scores range from 300-850 and the higher your score the more likely you will be approved and of course, the cost goes down.

To add additional confusion to the already mysterious scoring system the credit bureaus have decided to create an additional brand new credit scoring system, called VantageScore. It is the same concept but uses a different numerical scale. VantageScores ranges from 501 to 990. The system also assigns a letter grade to consumers within certain ranges For example if you are between 901-990 you would be considered an “A” borrower. 801-900 is considered a “B”, 701-800 is a “C” and so on and so forth. The important thing to remember when trying to figure out the difference between a FICO credit score and a VantageScore is to know that FICO is what 90% of the lenders are looking for. VantageScore is developed for consumers. We honestly feel as if the credit bureaus are just looking for another way to charge you more money and confuse consumers. Keep an eye on your FICO score as that is the score that is used by the majority of the financial world.

The Credit Repair Organizations Act (“”CROA””) is not actually an Act, it is actually Title IV of The Consumer Credit Protection Act. Section 401 states, however, it can be referred to as “Credit Repair Organizations Act”.

Now more than ever consumers must establish and maintain strong credit worthiness and standing in order to obtain more credit. As a result many consumers who have experienced credit problems seek assistance from credit repair organizations. Some credit repair organizations, however, advertise and engage in unfair business practices which result in financial hardship for consumers, particularly those of limited economic means or are uneducated.

The purposes of the Credit Repair Organizations Act is to ensure that prospective buyers credit repair services from credit repair organizations are provided with the information necessary to make an informed decision. It intends to protect the public from unfair or deceptive advertising and business practices by credit repair organizations. It enumerates prohibited practices, required disclosures, contract requirements, liability, and penalties for non-compliance and procedure to report non-compliance. The statute was signed by the President on September 30, 1996.

The Fair Credit Billing Act (FCBA) is a United States federal law enacted as an amendment to the Truth in Lending Act (codified at 15 U.S.C. § 1601 et seq.). Its purpose is to protect consumers from unfair billing practices and to provide a mechanism for addressing billing errors in “”open end”” credit accounts, such as credit card or charge card accounts. The FCBA allows consumers to dispute billing errors by sending a written notice of the dispute to the creditor. To trigger duties under the Act, a person must send a written dispute via mail (US Postal Service) to the “”billing inquiries”” address on their credit card statement. This dispute must be received by the creditor within sixty days of the statement date on the account statement that first contained the billing error. This often leads to a chargeback to the vendor.

After receiving notice of a dispute, the credit issuer must acknowledge the dispute, investigate the claim and, within ninety days, either make appropriate corrections to the account or send a letter to the consumer explaining why the creditor believes there was no error. If the creditor responds that they believe there was no error, the consumer can request copies of documentation supporting the validity of the disputed items.
