I have a very bad credit record, which started when i was younger?
now that i know the errors of having a credit card so young can damage credit really bad for an unresponsible kid, i want to fix it , but im not sure how i got a credit report that shows mostly stuff that was charged off already and a huge student loan and several other deliquent accounts are there easy ways of repairing this or consolidations maybe the student loan is probably my biggest problem
In order to build up credit and establish a good credit, you must show a number of stabilizing attributes. Most notably, your report must prove to the lender that he will get his money back. Here are some suggestions:
OPEN A BANK ACCOUNT
Open a bank account and use it responsibly. This is the first step in establishing a financial history.
CO-SIGN
One way is to piggy-back onto someone who already has a good credit history established and is willing to co-sign. Once the co-signing has occurred, you simply make payments on or before the due date. In time you will have established a credit history.
SECURED CREDIT CARD
Apply for a credit card. Shop around and only apply for a card if you can meet the lender’s requirements. Responsible use (spending within your budget and paying your bill on time) will help you build a good credit history.
DEPARTMENT AND GASOLINE CREDIT CARDS
Since gasoline credit cards are not revolving (cannot carry a balance forward month-to-month), often they are easier to obtain than regular credit cards. Similarly, some department stores offer revolving credit for a specific purchase and this is sometimes easier to establish. It is also a great way to establish credit.
