Tip #39: Get a good team on your side to help
you with your credit score
A good team of professionals can help you get your credit
score back in shape. Your most important member of your
team is yourself - you are the one with the financial agency
and (with this ebook) the knowledge to become your own best
advocate in credit repair. Besides this, you may want to
check with your local library for financial help books.
You may also want to include financial experts such as credit
counselors or others to help you. If you decide to seek a
team of experts to help, be sure that you check each person’s
credential, standing with the Better Business Bureau, and past
clients to make sure that the person or company can really help
you. Beyond this, make sure that you sign a contract or
agreement with each professional member of your team.
Tip #40: Your bank has good and reliable credit information
One free and professional source of credit information is
your bank. Your banking officer may be able to offer you
a great deal of professional, free advice, especially as banks
are trying harder and harder to provide good personal services
to customers.
Your bank may also have a number of credit solutions - such
as overdraft protection - that can help you keep your credit in
good repair. Banks are realizing more and more that many of
their clients are dealing with less than ideal credit.
Banks are trying to meet the demands of this new group and can
actually be a powerful ally for those who are trying to improve
their credit.
