How to correct errors on your credit report




By Rachel Nava

When you are looking at your credit report there are a few things that you may notice that are incorrect on it. You may have no idea of what you should do next. There are a few things you want to do to remove the inaccurate items off of your report. The first thing that you are going to want to do is notify the credit-reporting agency about the inaccuracy.


You are going to want to do this in writing that way there you are going to have some proof of sending them a letter. You are even going to want to let the company that has the inaccurate information on your credit report about what is wrong.


You are going to want to make sure that you are sending the company that filed the incorrect information a letter and a copy of all the details that will prove to them that they were showing inaccurate information on your credit report. You really do not want to send out your originals to the company then you are not going to have any information to back up your allegations about the inaccurate information.


Once you have sent out all of your information to the credit company and the creditor that placed the inaccurate information on your credit report you are going to want to make sure that you are going to check to see if it was taken care of by looking at your credit report and score. If you notice that it was not taken care of with the first letter, you are going to want to keep after both companies until it is resolved to your satisfaction. It is going to take some time and persistence but it will be worth it in the end when you see that the negative marks are off your credit report.
