CREDIT RIGHTS: Additional tips for solving credit problems


  • If you want to contest a credit report, bill or credit denial, contact the appropriate company in writing and send it "return receipt requested."
  • When you contest a billing error, include your name, account number, the dollar amount in question, and the reason you believe the bill is wrong.
  • If in doubt, request written verification of a debt.
  • Keep all your original documents, especially receipts, sales slips, and billing statements. You will need them if you dispute a credit bill or report. Send copies only. It may take more than one letter to correct problems.
  • Be skeptical of businesses that offer instant solutions to credit problems. Be persistent. Resolving credit problems can take time and effort.
  • There is nothing that a credit repair company can do for you — for a fee — that you cannot do for yourself for little or no cost.

    If you can't resolve your credit problems yourself or if you need help, you may want to contact a credit counseling service. Nonprofit organizations in every state counsel consumers in debt. Counselors try to arrange repayment plans that are acceptable to you and your creditors. They also can help you set up a realistic budget. These services usually are offered at little or no cost.
