Credit Questions and Answers

How long does it clutch for disputes to be erase from my credit report?

I had my checkbook stolen within 2001 and somehow four checks slipped by and showed up on my credit report last year. I've faxed the police report over to them and they said it will be removed, but does anyone know how long that take? I need to bring back a loan ASAP, but I'm not sure if I can with this on my report... Thanks!


Answers: Been at hand and done it. Credit companies such as Experian, Equifax and Trans-union have up to 90 days to fix any errors you submit to them. Also get hold of a copy of all three credit reports and check what else is on them. I have to put a fraud alert on mine cause someone be using my sons name but beside my ss#.
All the fraud alert does, is if someone goes to produce a large purchase over my predesignated dollar amount, the credit companies beckon me to verify if it me or a fraud.

Paypal will lone permit you receive 5 payments per year?!?

I'm relatively new to paypal, and I be just looking at this fees page here
https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr...
It say to receive payments funded by credit cards/debit cards, there is a control of 5 transactions per a 12 month period unless you upgrade... I enjoy about 9 things I plan to supply on ebay, but is paypal not going to let me receive more than 5 payments?


Answers: Actually its not that impossible. Basically what it means is, you can individual collect 5 Payments without verify your account. This is to protect buyers from fraudulent sale, if you have a Social Security Number, or US Bank Account - afterwards PayPay will verify you are in certainty legitimate and you can hold unlimited access to your PayPal Funds - no extra costs. They will make 2 small deposits into your edge account - $.08 - $.20 and once you verify those exact amounts, they consider your PayPal Account Verified. (I hold used PayPal Many times for clients - I'm a Web Developer, so I learned this first appendage, but it took a while). Hope this helps.

no, you hold a monthly limt i think it is approaching 250 dollars. you have to upgrade to adopt credit cards to get a 500.00 monthly cut-off date. and even further to a business account to capture no limt.. i have a 500.00 a month cut back and i rarley come close to that... but if you are making more than 500.00 then you should up level to the business account.

Did any of you pilfer Dave Ramsey Finical Peace University?

Finical Peace University was great, but we haven't be so great about following Dave Ramsey's direction, but what we have followed have helped. Have you taken the class? Did you love it? Are you out of debt? Do you own an emergancy fund?


Answers: We took FPU. I was gung ho and my spouse be dragging. FPU allowed us to work on our finances weekly for 13 weeks and have someone else facility the discussions so neither of us argued, etc. We haven't fought almost finances since FPU. We loved the class and recommend it to everyone!

We now discuss the needs/wants as adults and if we bring back stuck, we pull out the FPU or TMMO book out and see what Dave would support and let Dave "settle" the disagreement. Takes the "bleak guy" off us :-).

We are not out of debt, nonetheless but we are making big progress. We have A LOT of debt. When we took the course we know we were surrounded by for a 4 year plan of debt snowball. (We have done stupid next to zeros on it.) We are also expecting another child so explicitly a blessing but slowing us down until we know everything is fine with everyone after the birth.

Because of the debt snowball amount we put on the debt, adjectives our emergencies after the first 4 months of starting this program own all be taken out of our monthly budget by using the debt snowball money. Example- my brakes went out on the van, so that month we didn't remuneration the normal $500 extra on our smallest debt, we rewarded cash for the brakes.
I haven't attended the Financial Peace University but I hold read the Total Money Makeover book and it has changed our financial lives. We are at a point where on earth getting out of debt is the most important article right now.

All of our credit card debt is rewarded off. This year we will be capable of pay rotten a Fidelity loan and a car loan, in the order of $18,000. In the next two years after that we will compensate off adjectives our student loans. It will be a great feeling to be debt free.
I own not gone through Financial Peace University, but followed a similar structure.

I "snowballed" my debt payments. I first went through Money Management International (www.moneymanagement.org) to bring my interest rates lowered down - this did not cost me a penny in fees at adjectives and got my one of my visas down to 6% from 25.7%. Tell them you cannot brand a monthly donation (if you cannot afford to, of course).

I put everything I had surrounded by extra money every month (also scaled down my expenses and stopped consumption out) and paid past its sell-by date my $45k in debt contained by about 24 months.

I similar to the priciples that Dave Ramsey proposes. Another great method is John Cummuta's "Transforming Debt into Wealth" or his "Debt Free and Prosperous Living" course. You can get these on eBay for a fraction of the price. Also, turn to eBay and search for "debt software" to achieve an inexpensive program to map out your payment structure and to know exactly when you will be out of debt.

I own no debt, other than my 5% 15 year fixed mortgage and several thousand dollars within the bank for an emergency fund. I also own a HELOC (home equity line of credit) beside a zero be a foil for just within case of emergency as powerfully.
I have not.

I enjoy read his book the total money makeover.
Cut up and canceled All our credit cards and stopped worshiping the fico score.
payed rotten around $20,000 in credit card debt later yr. This yr we will have $30,000 contained by car debt payed stale and most of our 6 months expenses for an emergency fund. Next yr we hope to have the house payed stale and be debt free.

I also listen to his radio show every day during the winter months.
I haven't taken FPU, but I own read The Total Money Makeover and have see him live. Reading his book and following the baby steps have changed our lives. We started the program last January and own paid of $30K of our debt.

We still enjoy a good bit to jump, but should be debt free by September 2010, and we can't wait. If you follow his counsel it will work wonders.
