So are there any additional advantages to having a good credit score than easily getting approved for credit cards and getting large credit lines? Does it also project to any type of loans (i.e. it is easier to get approved for a car loan with a lower interest rate) or something?

I was thinking of gettin a loan to pay help pay off and improve my credit score, is this a good idea? I read that pay on loan on time and paying them off right away is a good way to improve your creit score. I had 6 credit cards (Clout Visa, Citi Bank Mastercard, Kohl's charge card, Kay Jewelers charge card, Sears charge card, and a QVC charge card.) Now I only have two cards that are open at the present time(QVC and Kohl's). Both of my open cards are almost maxed out, Kohl's has lowered my credit limit due to delinquencies, but QVC is still the same limit. The other ones are closed, I paid off Kay Jewelers and Sears. On or around 9/14/06 my Citi Bank Mastercard will be paid off. The only closed card that will be left would be the Visa. Couple days ago I recieve a letter from TransUnion, basically stating that I could get a free credit report with them and I have 4 negative items in my credit report. I think the negative items are the cards that are closed. I have been focusing on one card at a time, while paying the minimum amout due on the other cards on or before the due date.

My brother used my good credit score to refinance our old house? the loans has been in default couple of times Hi, everyone! I know the majority will probably tell me that I'm totally Screwed but perhaps someone can help me out here and give me some option. Anyway, here goes... My brother used my credit to refinance our old house for quick cash $$$. I owe my brother so I decided to let him use my good credit score which was 750 at that time. Now it is 520. I'm not really that concern much about my credit right now since that is not really the main problem but I'm thinking I'm going to notify the credit bureau soon that my credit was used by my brother. Now back to my question... Well, I found out that my brother didn't just refinance the house but actually also transferred the deed to his friend. So basically the deed of the house is not ours anymore but the 2 home loans are still in my name. Yes, I know I'm really ****ed right now... Now I've been told that my brother's friend will transfer the loan to his name but that was like last year?... and yes he's been late w/ the payments.. Thx! So what can i do? His friend is always finding an excuse... like the house will be sold next month, next week, etc. He have the money to pay for it but why would he when get my credit to use? I know the market has been down but he has like 40+ properties... He promised me he will never be late but he was in default for many times already the mortgage company keeps on calling me. Then he pays it off so that it will not foreclose but the damage is done. My credit is the witness. I know he has been waiting for the second year so he won't have to pay for the tax because we refinance the house almost 2 years ago. I just want the 2 loans out of my name. Not to mention I still have the tax to deal with. My brother was promised by his friend that he will take care of the tax but after all the lies... How can I believe that?... Again anyone please help and please no smart answers-keep it to yourself-I already know I'm in deep ****. Thank you! Thank you for taking the time to read my post Thank you all for the posts... Wow, I didn't know there are already many answers to my post. Actually, it is like this. The home was refinance under my name but my brother made the deal with a friend of his. My brother got a quick cash. My people actually do this. Let someone use their credit when buying a house. Anywy, the friend have the deed of the house. Now he actually own the house. We've been renting on the old house for awhile now but we have already move 1 year ago... but the old house is still under my name. The 2 loans are still in my name. I know I should have not let my brother used my credit. it is actually not illegal since he asked if he can use my credit. his friend took the deed of the house. I signed something saying something that they now own the deed of the house. it is one of those creative financing thingy. I'm into flipping houses. I wanted to flip a house but how can I when my credit is very low now... I know this will hunt me for many year but I'm one of those type that won't give up. I know I can fix this mess in time. I just want to remove my name from the loans. Now I'm not sure if it will do me much good to contact the mortgage company and tell them that I really don't own the house anymore??? I can sue his friend for lying but what good would that do? Some post were helpful... Please keep it coming... Thank you!

What would start me on a good credit score? I'm approaching my last semester in University now and will enter the working world hopefully the mid of next year.

My fees are paid for by my parents who have set up funds since I was a baby. My expenses are financed through my own part-time job. I have a little savings on the sides.

Is a credit score of 800 good? I bought a newer used car last week and financed about $5,000 of the cost of $15,000. The salesman said my credit score was over 800. Is that good? What does 800 mean? Oh, just some additional info. The car is a used '06 Grand Prix with 25K miles. The car was only 12,900 one owner. The extra cost was tax, title and 100k extended warranty. I had 12K to put down , but they had a min of 5k to finance. So, I put down 10k, and will apply the additional 2K to the first couple months payments. So, I should have the car paid off in about one year with any luck. I knew I should have had good credit, cause I pay my bills on time, and add a little to my house payment each month. But, I did not understand the 800 score. And how good is "good" As far as having "help"; I guess advice from my grandfather that he shared with me from his father "if you owe someone, you should pay them". Of course that was before the days of Credit Scores. As trying to impress someone I do not know,,, well if I was trying to impress someone I would have bought an '08 Hummer instead of an '06 Pontiac. Thanks for those who participated.

We have a really good credit score and want to buy another house or do an equity line on our current, but..... My husband started a new business (as a new home contractor) a little over a year ago, so it looks like we have not made very much as far as income for this year or last year. My husband does use money from the company to pay our bills, but the money is not considered income. Is there a mortagage company that can look at the fact that we have a really good credit score without considering our income situation?? We have also considered doing a equity loan....is there a place that will loan you 100% of the equity in your home without needing verification of income? or tax records?

Can I get a good mortgage rate with a credit score of 631? My score took a hit from one account in collections that is now paid off, so I'm sure my score will go back up at least a little bit before long.

Is 631 good enough to qualify for a good mortgage, or should I just keep renting until my credit recovers?
How many points does a "charge-off" take off a credit score? I am in the middle of selling my home, and am finding that I will be owing about 20,000 in the end. I can either pull out of the sale and stick with my home and hope to sell it for more at a later date, or the bank is offering a "short sale" program (apparantly something new). From what I understand they will "forgive" the deficit that I owe because they figure the alternative is foreclosure. However, they said they will report the situation as a charge off on my credit. I have not been able to find out how bad this will affect my credit. I am desperate to get out of my house but I have a credit score of over 700 and if that falls, I won't even be able to get into my next home, which defeats the whole purpose of selling in the first place. Anyone have experience w/ chargeoffs and how much (as accurate as possible) they will damage my credit?

Can anybody suggest a good card with no annual fee that would approve me with a credit score of around 610? I want to rebuild good credit and I think I can do that by using a credit card to pay for gas and groceries and then paying off the balance on a monthly basis. I think this may help me to correct two of the negative things on my credit report. 1) only $300 of available credit - I only have a JC Penney card, I pay off any balance each month, but my report says I have too little available credit. 2) I have been denied for credit cards two times in the past year, so I want to apply for one that will not deny me, so I dont do any further damage to my score. Should I apply for a secured card of like $500 from my bank? Any suggestions?
My credit score is 540 is there still a chance to get a home loan? I filed for bankruptcy a year and a half ago due. I am current on my bills. I make about $65k a year. I filled out an application with Countrywide 2 weeks ago and never heard back. I have left the loan officer several messages. I'm guessing it was denied but i never recieved any type of notification. I only have about a 5% downpayment. Is it still possible to get qualified for a loan with less than perfect credit?

What do you do when a "preapproved" company keeps checking your credit score? There is a card services company under several names(Salute/UTB, ASPEN/FB&T, ASPIRE/CB&T, and TRIBUTE/FBOFD) that keeps checking my credit. I have not authorized it and between all the companies they have done 6 inquiries in the last year. It is hurting my credit. I have called the company and they say they don't show me in their system and so they can't remove me. What can I do so that they quit wrecking my credit? Please HELP!!

What impact do public records have on your credit score? Do I have a credit score without any credit? I am trying to understand my credit situation better so I can fix it. I get a lot of conflicting responses and am not sure what to do. I have a huge child support debt from about 9 years ago (I am 30) when I was in a situation in which I was unable to work. It is about $16,000. I have been paying on it for years and finally got the interest dropped last month so that my payments actually affect the balance. I have a judgement to my apartment complex for about $3,000 (which was paid in full.) This was from last year. I have never had a credit card and have no loans or anything. My credit report lists my 3 child support cases as my 3 accounts. When I paid for my score it said I was unable to be scored, though in an answer to another question I asked someone said I do have a credit score but its probably low. Will the public records affect my score and how so. Since I paid the judgement to my apartment complex in full, should that be refected somewhere on my report?

How badly will my back child support effect my credit score, (once I get one) What about other public records? I am 30 and have no credit score. I accrued a huge amount of back child support about ten years ago and circumstances led me unable to work and pay support. Of course, that large amount has hindered everything I do ever since. I am really trying to get my life going in a positive direction. The slightest emergency has me in a lose lose situation every time. Because of this I decided it is time I get a newer reliable car, but am reminded that I have no credit. I have never had a credit card. All that is on the report is my back child support judgements and a judgement to my apartment complex. That judgement was paid in full. The child support is about $16,000. I recently applied for a secured credit score to atleast help build some credit, but wonder how badly the support judgement will hold me back. I pay regularly on the back pay, but it doesn't seem to show that on my report. It is listed as collections or something. Any insight? lol, I couldn't afford a new car if I sold my soul. I know that I need a reliable car, and think I can find something better than I have now but would never be able to pay out right for it. A loan would need to come into play...which is why I need to get a credit score....in addition, I just realize that I have to start somewhere in effort to fix my situation. I don't want to be in debt for my whole life, I am responsible with my money, I just don't have much with these child support payments. They take the max from me, and I have no help from anyone.
