Why?
- Bankruptcy files hold an incredible amount of information,
so the possibility of mistakes are high.
- Bankruptcy is reported to credit bureaus by the court, often
by overworked, underpaid clerks with little or no interest in
your particular file.
Working with a government office is quite different than working
with private subscribers. Getting the government to cooperate will
make it hard for the credit bureau to respond to your dispute letter
within the allotted time. The government's incompetence can affect
your fixed credit report. Remember to send your letter of dispute
to the credit bureau, NOT the court that holds the bankruptcy file.
The bureau must also correct any inaccuracy within a reasonable
amount of time or remove it (the bankruptcy) from your credit record.
It is very easy to find some kind of inaccurate information in a
bankruptcy file. Be sure to use this to your advantage.
More details and information regarding bankruptcy and how it can
help or hurt you are available online in "The
Way to Good Credit" Guide . We also include charts and
graphs to help you create the budget that meets your lifestyle.
