• Ep: 8 New Rules for Debt Collection Agencies
    Apr 3 2024
    Debt Collection Agencies to work under stricter rules from April 1


    Debt collection agencies need to stick to much more stringent rules from April that are meant to ensure that there are fewer debt issues, according to the Inspection of Justice and Safety. For example, a new law will ban debt collection agencies from putting people under pressure. The agencies are also required to register in a public register.

    Existing companies have a year to sign up for the register, and new companies must do it immediately. The law will also ensure stricter demands of professional competence in debt collection agencies regarding how they deal with debtors and the information they provide. In addition, only certified bailiffs are allowed to threaten with a summons, which is a call to appear in front of a judge. Other debt collection services are not qualified to do this, according to the inspection.

  • Credit Chronicles: Personal Statement
    Mar 20 2024

    Experian credit reports as well as those from lesser-known credit bureaus may also contain a “Personal Statement” section, which allows you to explain any derogatory information contained in your file. This will likely have little or no impact on your overall credit standing or the decisions made by creditors and lenders, but it can’t hurt to provide a rationale.

  • Credit Chronicles: Public Records
    Mar 13 2024

    There are three main types of public records that can be included in credit reports. Each has a detrimental impact on your credit standing and may remain for up to 10 years.

    • Bankruptcies: Chapter 7, 11, and 13 bankruptcies can be listed on your credit reports. The length of time they will remain there and the damage done to your credit standing depends on the type of bankruptcy in question and whether or not you adhere to the terms of the bankruptcy.
      But other than that, “there is no way to mediate how much a bankruptcy affects your credit score. It is what it is, regardless of the chapter filed,”
    • Tax Liens: Courts often attach a notice known as a lien to property records in order to block the sale of the property until unpaid debts (e.g. unpaid taxes) are addressed.
    • Civil Judgments: If a court finds that you owe another party money (e.g. child support), this will be reflected on your credit report.

  • Credit Chronicles: Unlocking Credit Inquiries
    Mar 6 2024

    An inquiry is recorded whenever your credit report is “pulled” (i.e. viewed) by another party, such as a lender, credit card company, service provider, landlord, or insurer. Credit inquiries remain on your credit report for up to 2 years, and each can temporarily result in a slight dip in your overall credit standing.

    If you wish, you can opt out from allowing companies to look at your credit report without your permission. This will simply remove your name and contact information from the lists that credit bureaus sell banks so that they can send people pre-approved credit card offers.
