The mostimportant is education. The best place to start is probably the Federal Trade Commission. Theyprovide consumer information on credit issues and advice on where to go for help. This isprobably a good place to mention that self credit repair is not possible until "credit issues" havebeen resolved. If you are behind on, or having trouble making payments, then you may needcredit counseling, but not credit repair. If you have had problems paying your bills in the past andthose problems are now behind you, but your credit rating has been damaged, then you may needcredit repair, but not credit counseling. The non-profit Consumer Credit Counseling Servicesavailable in most cities are the best, most reasonably priced credit and budget counselingservices, but they cannot help you repair your credit. There is no non-profit credit repair service,which is why there are so many do it your self credit repair programs and so many credit repaircompanies.Credit repair companies simply do the work for you. In some cases, they may be able to achievebetter results that you can on your own. A self credit repair program is not particularly costly, butcan be time consuming and ineffective. Some credit repair companies can be very costly, but theymay save you some time. If you are trying to repair your credit quickly, because you are tired ofpaying high interest rates or because you have been denied credit, then you may want to considera credit repair company.The first thing that you will need for any self credit repair program is copies of your credit reports.There are three major credit bureaus, Experian, Equifax and TransUnion, and a number of smallercredit reporting agencies throughout the country. If you are attempting self credit repair, you maywant to start with one of the three majors. You can view and print a copy of your credit report fromany of the three major credit bureaus at http://www.annualcreditreport.com. You are entitled toone free copy per year from each of the bureaus. You must pay for subsequent copies. As youare working your way through self credit repair, you will need several copies.You will need a yellow highlighter for the first step of your self credit repair program. As you arelooking at your credit report, highlight any information that is inaccurate, outdated or questionable.You will need to report any inaccuracies to the credit bureau, either in writing or on-line dependingon the bureau. The credit bureau has 30 days to investigate. If they need more information, theywill contact you. Once they have the additional information, they have another 30 days toinvestigate. Which brings us to another self credit repair necessity; patience. You will needpatience to write these letters and wait for results. It is at this point that many people give up oncredit repair entirely. Some people just give up on self credit repair and turn to a credit repairspecialist for help.Time, copies of your credit reports, a yellow high lighter and patience. These are the only things

that you really need to begin a self credit repair program. You do not need expensive "do it yourself credit repair software". These software programs mainly consist of copies of form letters foryou to send to the credit bureaus and the information that you have just read. If you have decidedafter reading the self credit repair requirements that there are some things that you do not have(like time and patience, yellow highlighters are pretty easy to come by), then you may want toconsider a credit repair company.The FTC warns consumers to avoid companies that claim to be able to achieve results in veryshort periods of time. One company advertises that they "may" be able to increase your creditscore by "as much as" 100 points in "as little as" fifteen days. That is highly unlikely. It is true thata reputable credit repair company can achieve faster results than self credit repair, but they will beperfectly honest about the "30 days to investigate rule".
