Credit repair: FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions: Credit Repair Services by [Your Name/Business]
Hey everyone! If you’re tired of bad credit holding you back from loans, jobs, or even renting, you’re not alone. As a credit repair specialist, I help people like you clean up their credit reports legally and effectively using consumer protection laws. I “sweep” inaccurate or unverifiable items off your report by disputing them with the credit bureaus. Below, I’ve compiled some of the most common questions I get. If you have more, drop a comment or DM me!
1. What exactly is credit repair, and how do you do it?
Credit repair involves identifying and disputing errors, outdated info, or unverifiable negative items on your credit report to improve your score. I use federal consumer laws (like the Fair Credit Reporting Act - FCRA) that protect your rights to ensure only accurate information stays on your report. This isn’t about “hiding” legit debts—it’s about enforcing the rules that bureaus and creditors must follow. I handle the disputes for you, so you don’t have to stress.
2. What laws do you use to “sweep” items from my credit report?
We’re all protected by key consumer laws, primarily the FCRA, which requires credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion) to investigate disputes within 30 days and remove items they can’t verify. Other laws like the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) help challenge improper collections. Everything I do is 100% legal and based on your rights as a consumer—no tricks, just smart enforcement.
3. What information do I need to provide to get started?
To verify and dispute on your behalf, I’ll need your full name, ID (like a driver’s license), Social Security number, and a recent bill or statement with your address for proof of identity. This ensures the bureaus take the disputes seriously. All info is handled securely and confidentially.
4. How long does it take to see results?
Results can start showing up as early as the first week after I send off the disputes! Bureaus have 30-45 days to respond, but many items get removed or updated faster. Full repairs can take 3-6 months depending on your report’s complexity, but you’ll see progress along the way.
5. Do you provide any guides or steps for me to follow?
Absolutely! Before we start, I give you a step-by-step guide on prep work, like gathering your documents, reviewing your free credit reports (from AnnualCreditReport.com), and avoiding new negative actions. After your credit is fixed, you’ll get another guide on maintaining it—things like paying bills on time, keeping utilization low, and monitoring for future issues. Knowledge is power!
6. Is this guaranteed to fix my credit?
While I can’t guarantee specific results (no legit service can, per FTC rules), most clients see significant improvements if there are disputable items. Success depends on your unique report, but I’ve helped hundreds boost scores by 50-100+ points. We’ll review your report first to set realistic expectations.
7. How much does it cost, and how do I sign up?
Pricing is customized based on your needs—contact me for a free consultation! No upfront fees for the basics, and I only charge for results. DM me or visit [your website/link] to get started.
8. Can I do this myself, or do I need a pro?
You can try DIY disputes, but it takes time, knowledge of the laws, and persistence. I handle the paperwork, follow-ups, and escalations so you can focus on your life. Plus, pros like me know the insider tips to maximize removals.
