How Often is My Credit Report Updated?

When it comes to timing and payment of credit cards, information is not updated as frequently as most consumers would like for it to be.

Credit report lag is a huge cause of confusion for Consumers. Once you pay off a credit card, it becomes exciting to see the changes this makes on your overall score; however, credit reports are not updated right away, meaning you may not see a change for a little while. Ugh… How disappointing!!

Prior to deciding to freak out and believe something must be incorrect understand that, generally, creditors forward info like balance updates and new accounts to credit reporting agencies monthly, not daily. The primary factor to take into account is not that every financial institution reports to all 3 of the credit bureaus unfortunately. Additionally, each creditor updates their system on different days of the month, so although you may have paid off all of the credit cards on the same day, the latest balances most likely are not going to be reported at the same time.

You should always familiarize yourself with how public records & hard inquiries are reported. When it comes to hard inquiries, like applying for loans, credit bureaus update inquiry information right there and then, which means you can view this info pretty much as soon as it is dispatched. However, when it comes to public records such as bankruptcies, tax liens & judgements, the process is never the same. Even if you have addressed a long standing delinquency, the credit bureaus more than likely will not receive the updated info right away, especially since every court has different conditions when reporting public records.. In general, negative marks usually stay on your credit report for many years, so many times; a quick fix just isn’t possible. Of course it’s not what we want, but it just is what it is.

Since changes do take some time, it is very important for you to remain patient in seeing positive changes. If you can give it a month or maybe even 2 before you expect the changes, this will allow you to keep your sense of sanity.. So just keep that in mind. However, it is always to remain mindful about when you have made pmts or had negative marks eliminated, how many accounts you ought to have open along with the info that all 3 bureaus have on your file. In the event that you notice incorrect or outdated information on your credit report, you’ll be able to file a dispute with the 3 credit bureaus that are reporting the wrong information. If you need help figuring out how to dispute something on your credit report, call Nationwide Credit Clearing.
All in all, nothing will help keep you on top of things like a little bit of patience and diligence. So the next time you check on your credit, keep in mind patience is a virtue!!

On another note, if you have not even checked your credit report due to you being afraid to see what is on there, it’s not doing you due diligence.  This is where Nationwide Credit Clearing comes in.  Nationwide Credit Clearing has over 20 years of experience repairing credit of all types. We have helped thousands of people improve their credit score by removing inaccurate, misleading or unverifiable information. We deleted over 25,000 items last year alone.  

So don’t be afraid, there is no time like the present.  Give us a shout here at Nationwide Credit.  We are the home of the free credit report and consultation!!

Your Credit Score & Credit Utilization Rates Have A Very Distinct Relationship

shutterstock_236907574

One of the most important things credit companies do to factor in your total credit score is they look at your balance to limit ratio.  Your rate of utilization is simply the percentage of the total limit based upon your current balance.

To illustrate how important this factor is, Credit Karma sampled approximately 15 million Credit Karma members who visited the site in 2014 and compared their credit scores and corresponding credit card utilization rates. (Graph Provided by Creditcarma.com)

The Facts:

2015-01-26-CCU-and-Avg-Credit-Scores-Update_GRAPH

The correlation here is very easy to see.  If you max out your card, and don’t pay it down, you are going to have problems.  The lower the utilization rate, the higher your score, that is, with the exception zero utilization. As you can also see, not using your card at all is not the best option.  The better choice would be to use the card for purchase during the month, then always keep that utilization at about 30%.  This gives you credibility and proves to creditors that you can be responsible with money.

What this Means…

Lenders don’t like high utilization rates because it tends to indicate there’s a higher chance of you not being able to repay debt. Keeping your credit card utilization low at about 30% is the most ideal range.  Creditors need to see proof, long term, that you can manage money and credit–something you can’t do without using the credit you’re granted.

If you’re uncomfortable with the idea of using your card for large purchases, you can still show an active credit profile by paying for small items with your card. It’s important that you practice good habits when managing your credit cards. Charge what you can pay back and make sure your payments are on time. In order to keep your utilization rate greater than 0%, you’ll need to let your charges show up on your billing statement, and then you can pay it off in full. This does not mean you need to carry a balance from one month to the next–doing so may just cost you money in the form of interest.

Credit utilization is just one of many factors when generating an overall score

Credit card utilization % is definitely an important aspect of your credit worthiness, and more than likely will have a significant impact on credit health, but it’s not the only factor these lenders care about. Basically, and what it comes down to, is it is not impossible for people who have high credit utilization rates to still have good credit scores, just as long as the other factors are all good– but it’s definitely not something that typically happens. 

Question:  When was the last time you even Checked your Credit Score?

If it’s been a while, it’s probably time to catch up.  Nationwide Credit Clearing is the home of the free credit report and consultation.  Not only will we provide you with an accurate view of where you stand as far as credit worthiness, but we can then help you by taking the existing derogatory items, late payments, etc.. and helping to remove them from your credit altogether.

Debt Solutions: Ways to Begin Eliminating Credit Card Debt

credit-repair-chicago

A lot of people end up with staggering credit card debt. Even though it seems overwhelming, trimming your financial allowance through small changes in your lifestyle might help.

Debt Solutions: Day-To-Day Savings

Take a seat and consider the amount of money you would spend throughout the week on coffee, lunches and takeout dinners. Somebody who spends $ 5 each day in the coffeehouse is looking at Hundred Dollar expenditure throughout the course of the month. Invest that first month’s savings on a at home coffee maker and travel mug so you’re able to take the coffee from your home. The same goes for your morning breakfast. You will begin to see extra cash in your pocketbook right away.

For lunch time, take the brown bag with you.  The $10 or more you spend every day on one salad or perhaps a sandwich leads to over $200 monthly. Instead, buy salad fixings or lunch meat at the supermarket. For anybody who typically runs late each and every morning, pack your lunch the evening before to prevent adding precious minutes towards your morning routine.

This may be the toughest adjustment for families on the go, but it’s time to cut back on takeout dinners. These quickie meals are budget busters. A few cartons of Chinese food or a couple of pizzas can easily run you $30 or more a pop. Instead, keep frozen prepared meals on hand for those nights when cooking isn’t an option. Double your recipes and freeze batches of soup, chili and casseroles on weekends when you have time to cook. Even frozen prepared foods from the grocery store will save you considerable amounts of money. Avoiding expensive takeout even twice a week can save nearly $250 a month.

Debt Solutions: Monthly Payments

payment due

The initial place to search for simple savings is in your mobile phone, cable and Internet fees. Chances are you’re spending money on features you are not using. For people with every cable channel but aren’t big on watching TV, contact your cable company to find out what packages are available that still offer what you need. Your cell phone bill could possibly be another budget drain which can be trimmed through careful research of packages available.

You could search for a bundle package that provides you significantly lower rates on your Internet, mobile phones and cable by utilizing the same company for all those. Comparison-shop between providers and do not hesitate to let them understand what you have been proposed by their competitors. This tactic is known to sweeten many deals.

Debt Solutions: Big-Ticket Items

Make the most use out of your expensive items before replacing them. Keep appliances, cars and electronics until they are no longer useful instead of purchasing every new item that comes on the market. You could be in need of that new tablet, but stick to the existing laptop for a bit — it is not costing you anything at all. Invest a few bucks in repairs to maintain your big-ticket belongings in good condition, and wait to buy new items before you look for a deal you simply can’t pass by.

Now that you know more about how to eliminate credit card debt, get your FREE credit report & consultation from the #1 Chicago Credit Repair Company, Nationwide Credit Clearing.

How long does information stay on my Credit Report and how can Credit Repair help me?

credit report credit score nationwide credit clearingThis is a great topic because it is one of  Most Frequently Asked Questions to credit repair companies by those who are trying to improve their overall credit score.   The answer is probably not what you are looking for if you are someone who has had significant late payments, judgements, bankruptcy or other

Here’s the Breakdown:

and Although It depends on the type of negative information, here’s the average idea of how long different types of negative information will stay on your credit report:

  • Late payments: 7 years
  • Bankruptcies: 7 years for completed Chapter 13 bankruptcies and 10 years for Chapter 7 bankruptcies.
  • Foreclosures: 7 years
  • Collections: Generally, about 7 years, depending on the age of the debt being collected.
  • Public Record: Generally 7 years, although unpaid tax liens can remain indefinitely.

Length of Time Matters:

For all of these negative items, the older they are the less impact they are going to have on your FICO® score. For example, a collection that is 4 years old will hurt much less than a collection that is 4 months old.

After that time it will be automatically removed from your report.  But 7-10 years is a long time, and that negative information can be standing in the way of you buying a car, a house, or getting a good loan.  Public records have a huge impact on your credit report and your credit score as well.

At Nationwide Credit Clearing, we help you get those items removed.  There is no reason for those items to remain on your report for 7-10 years.

All positive information on your credit report can stay there forever. The more positive information, the better your credit score will be
