Indeed, some people have fallen prey to credit repair scams. By reading user reviews online, you will be able to separate the good from the bad.

It may take a while, but before you know it, your credit score will improve.

Since passage of legislation known as the Credit Repair Organizations Act, companies must supply you with a required form known as the "Consumer Credit File Rights Under State and Federal Law," before you are required to sign a contract to hire them to aid you in regards to repairing your credit. In addition, they must provide you with a written contract which specifies all of your obligations and rights. Make sure you read through all documents before signing a contract. A credit repair organization cannot charge you a fee until they have fulfilled all of their promised services. Also be aware that they must wait three days after you have signed a contract before they can perform any services. During this three-day waiting period, you may void the contract at any time, without payment of any fees.

Pay your bills on time. It is the cardinal rule of good credit, and credit repair. The majority of your score and your credit is based off of how you pay your obligations. If they are paid on time, every time, then you will have no where to go but up.

This is not going to be an easy process. Rebuilding your credit takes time and patience but it is doable. The steps you've gone over are the foundation you need to work on to get your credit score back where it belongs. Don't let the bad choices of your past affect the rest of your future. Follow these tips and start the process of building your future.
