How to Avoid Credit Repair Scams
Learn what you can do on your own and how to avoid outrageous fees
A credit score is important for almost any consumer — if you want to buy a house or a car or rent an apartment — you need to have a decent credit score. These scores are also often used in determining insurance premiums and factor into a range of other consumer finance issues.
That means a low or bad score can keep people away from certain opportunities.
Since scores are important, it might make sense to attempt to repair a low credit score using a so-called credit repair company. However, this is not always the best idea.
