Does anyone know how your credit is affected. I've had a car loan for 3 years and have a 30 day late account history on 4 different months in 2007. I have since cleared it up and made on time payments for the past three months. I know the 30 days past due is negative but will it ever go positive and about how long does it take. Please help I'm trying to turn my credit around.

Where do you have your loan from..a bank or finance company? USUALLY, with a finance company ( talking from experience) WILL report it, on your CR if its late. However, if you 'catch up' on balance, they will report that your 'up to date' with your payments. Banks and finance companies USUALLY report monthly. Hope this answered your question.

First I'd like to say congratulations on getting back on top of your financial obligations! Athough more than likely it will show on your credit report for atleast a couple years the most important thing is that your are currently back to making your payments on time. You are already on the right path to increasing your credit score, you'll just have to deal with the damage that was dealt on keep marching on.

The negatives can stay for seven years. Right now, your credit has taken a pretty big hit, but if you are able to pay off the car with no further lates, your score will eventually begin to rebound. I can't say for how long your score will be seriously affected (Fair Issac Co. keeps their scoring system closely guarded), but as time goes by, the affect any given negative has will begin to lessen. As you near the final payoff date, you can try your luck with a goodwill letter (requesting removal of the negative info) written to one of the finance company's executives...it's a pretty much a Hail Mary, but every once in a while, it works.

Negatives do not turn into positives. However these negatives are going to stay for 7 years, beyond which it is supposed to be dropped.

Lelani, its great that you have taken your step towards credit repair. Keep up with your payments and try not to open accounts immediately.

I had a phone service terminated, before 2 years are up. According to the phone company, I have a balance due of 129.00. I can pay this amount within 2 weeks. Will this show up on my credit report?

if the debt has not gone to collections then no. Most utility companys dont hit your CR until they are sent to collections 2 weeks should be fine but, I would call the phone company and tell them about your plans

Call them immediately to be sure they don't turn it over to collections. Tell them you can pay the full amount in two weeks. Most will work with you especially since you are not doing it on payment arrangments.

Hi Tina
You should immediately pull out your credit report to find out whether they have updated the debt on your report or not. If they have not yet updated, immediately contact your phone company and pay it off. However, if it has already been listed in your credit report, send a DV letter to the phone company and on getting validation of your debt, try to convince them for pay for deletion agreement before you pay it off.
