Errors On Your Credit Report?
Inaccurate information on your credit reports can mean you pay more for loans & mortgages, or potentially block you from accessing lines of credit altogether. Perhaps even worse than that, these errors can also stand in your way of getting jobs or insurance policies.
Fortunately, however, the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) protects consumers when their credit reports contain inaccurate information. Under the FCRA, consumer reporting agencies & companies that provide them with consumers’ data, must report accurate information and correct errors that have been disputed.
