Piggybacking Still Works

January 28th, 2012 by admin | 2 Comments | Filed in Good Credit Scores

Credit card piggybacking is using someone else’s good credit to raise your own score by being added on as an authorized user on their account. If you find yourself with a low credit score, you probably know how difficult it is to borrow money and how you are penalized by higher interest rates and credit denial. With credit card piggybacking, you are made an authorized user on someone else’s credit card account, one with a good credit score. By doing so, your credit score will improve. This tactic has been used for sometime by parents wanting to give their children a head start with building their credit history. If you have a close family member that has an established credit card with a good credit history, ask them to add you as an authorized user. Have them call their bank to ensure the bank will report the full credit history from that account on your credit profile. The credit card should have a perfect credit history, be opened for three or more years, and have a low utilization rate. This means the balance should be 30% or less of the credit limit. Fair Isaac had previously announced that its FICO 08 scoring model would no longer allow piggybacking. However, as of today most lenders are not using the FICO 08 scoring model. FNMA OR FHLMC has also not adopted it. Questions about how piggybacking can help you raise your credit score? www.911creditpro.com

Is 637 a good credit score? Can I buy a car or get a credit card?

January 17th, 2012 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Good Credit Scores

www.bestfreecreditscores.com Is 637 a good credit score? Can I buy a car or get a credit card? You applied for a home or car loan and in the mail a few days later you got a letter showing you your credit score was 637. Is that a good thing? Is a credit score in the 600s a good credit score? The FICO credit score scale runs from 300 to 850, 300 being the worst, 850 being the best. A credit score within the range of 300 to 584 is considered a bad credit score. A credit score within the range of 585 to 669 is considered a fair credit score. It’s not the greatest but it’s also not the worst. A credit score in the low 600s will usually be acceptable to get a car loan. It will not be a favorable interest rate and you will need to show a good monthly income along with a large down payment. You will also be able to get a credit card for people with fair credit. Credit card banks consider a low 600 credit score to be a high risk and you will have to pay a higher APR starting at 19.9% and up. You may be better off going with a secured credit card which can carry a lower APR but it can be used a credit builder when you need to build up your credit report due to past credit mistakes. If you are not in a dire need of getting a car loan or credit card at this time you can work on building up your credit score for the next 6 to 12 months by paying all your bills on time and keeping your balances low and then begin applying. So a credit score of 600, 610, 620, 630 or 637 is not a great
