Do You Have A Good Credit Score? - Articles Surfing

A good credit score is necessary to obtain loans, credit cards, insurance, employment and some other types of purchases. If you have a good credit score your interest rates on loans and credit cards is lower than with a poor credit score. Purchases such as a cell phone require a credit check and a poor credit score requires a hefty deposit on the cell phone plan. Employers may reject your application for poor credit, if you would work with undetermined amounts of money.

People never really think about all the things their credit score affect in their every day life. Your credit history follows you everywhere you go throughout your life. If you never view your credit history, you will never know why your credit score is good or bad. It may contain certain things on your credit report that reflects badly against you, even if you believe you have excellent credit, without looking you will never know the entire reason.

Creditors and lenders may indivertibly enter the wrong information for your payment history, they may enter your name incorrectly leading back to someone else with a different social security number, but this still sends up a red flag. For some unknown reason, some creditors some how have you married when you are not. This usually happens because of living conditions.

In any case, this may reflect badly on you, if the names of the person you are suppose to be married to has a poor credit history. Although you can correct this error, you need to view your credit report annually to assure these records contain the correct information. In some cases, you may have to go to great extents to prove the credit report faulty. An investigation by the credit agency will prove your case or disprove your case. If the information found, contains errors, they will correct the problem, usually within thirty days.

The good credit score is a top limit of eight hundred and fifty with a low of five hundred and fifty points. The average person usually has a credit score of six hundred and fifty. You can raise your credit score by checking for errors in your credit history and requesting the appropriate changes. Everything you find wrong on the credit report adds to your credit score.

If you have many little charge cards, try to pay off each one right away and watch your credit score rise. The more good credit you have the higher your credit score goes. If you adjust your credit score just fifty to hundred points, it helps when applying for loans and credit cards. The higher your good credit score, the lower your interest rate as well as your insurance rates.
