Is beefing up new credit now a good strategy? [sole holder] [bofa]

Hey there – how do I rebuild my credit card work, I'm getting nervous about authorized user cards not factoring in my FICO.

Dispute form for experian? [ch7] [experian]

I was just discharged from CH7 and have ordered all my credit reports to do a clean-up, and to ensure that all appropriate accounts are listed as IIB.

Can CA Collect on TL that OC has Charged Off ? [midland]

Providian has two Acccount, not even me, but it has not charged it. Midland is now trying to collect on them, they can do this?Reply:Of course they can, that's exactly how the collection/ junk debt buying game is played.
