 TOP 26 Misconceptions of Credit
As industry experts, we understand just how easy it is for anyone to
slip into a bad credit score. Whether your credit has been affected
by student loans, a bankruptcy, a divorce, foreclosures or anything
else, it can be an extremely frustration experience which can deny
you access to many of your most important life goals.
 Myth #1: You share a credit score with your
spouse.
 Myth #2: Your credit score only counts when
you're looking to borrow money.
 Myth #3 Always pay your credit card balance in
full and that will give you the best credit.
 Myth #4: My mortgage broker can use the credit
report I obtained from Annual Credit Report.
 Myth #5: Too many accounts will hurt, therefore
you must close accounts.
 Myth #6: A co-signer is not responsible.
 Myth #7: If a judge in a divorce proceeding
orders a spouse to pay a debt, it's no longer
affected by credit.
 Myth #8: Piggybacking does not work anymore.
 Myth #9 Opting out will increase your credit
score.
 Myth #10: Multiple auto loan inquiries increase
will hurt your score for each one.
 Myth #11: It will take me seven years to improve
my credit, when in actuality it's an ongoing
process to improve your credit.
 Myth #12: A serious financial crisis like as a
foreclosure or bankruptcy permanently hurts
your credit score.
 Myth #13 FICO scores are locked in for six
months, and that they change every six months.
 Myth #14 "I don't need to check my credit report
if I pay my bills on time."
 Myth #15 "Checking my own credit report harms
my credit standing."
 Myth #16 Consolidating into a low interest credit
card will increase your score.
 Myth #17: Going over the balances on your credit
limits are okay because the credit card company
authorized the purchase.
 Myth #18 "As long as you pay off your credit
card balances, your score will go up."
 Myth #19 Types of Credit don't matter.
 Myth #20 Paying off an old collection or charge
off will increase your credit score.
 Myth #21 Using debit cards which will help to
build your credit is another myth.
 Myth #22 "The credit bureaus are government
agencies."
 Myth #23 "If I get one credit bureau to remove an
item from my credit report, all the other bureaus
will remove it automatically.
 Myth #24 Credit repair is against the law, is
another myth.
 Myth #25 Your salary makes a difference in your
credit score is another myth.
 Myth #26 Adding a consumer statement to your
credit file makes a difference, and ultimately,
does not make a difference in your credit scoring
at all.
