I have to say I have been reading these boards for quite some time. I knew my credit was going to go downhill. I recently went through a divorce and have been in over my head with rent, so I can keep my children in their schools. So, this is my report from Experian. I pulled it today. My score is 402. My report is pretty much accurate. I had gotten a lot of incorrect information off of my reports about a year ago. So there really isn't much to dispute. I have two repos from just two months ago. And a bunch of credit card collections. A car insurance collection and a slew of lates. So, pretty much nothing is past the SOL. Should I do the valdation thing with the CAs? Or do I just start negotiating? Here is my negatives. Maybe someone can give me a jump start. I am in the financial position to dig myself out of this hole, but I need a plan. I got a recent raise and the ability to pick up extra hours. As you can see, nothing has a huge balance, except the repos. The one item I do not recognize is the Time Warner. That can't be mine. I have time warner now and my account is fine. So, that one doesn't make any sense. Thanks so much for looking.....=) (I think I have the lowest score of anyone!) =( katfshh Potentially Negative Items Back to top Credit Items BLMDSNB Address: 9111 DUKE BLVD MASON, OH 45040 No phone number available Account Number Status: Closed/Current, was past due 90 days.

The mortgage is probably your most positive account, even with an old 30 day late. Don't touch it. Is the insurance amount due accurate? Is it for coverage actually provided, or did you cancel, but they failed to terminate the policy and continued billing? The repos are probably the ones to bite you later, since they are worth suing over. But if you have nothing, at this point why bother. Are there any of your reporting accounts that you could keep current, as a starting point for rebuilding credit later?
I have several good items, that I didn't post. So, hopefully they will help. One is a paid mortgage that was never late. Along with other things that were paid and good. .. here let me post the good stuff... BALLY TOTAL FITNESS Account Number: xxxx......./ Date Opened: 01/1997 Status: Paid,Closed/Never late.
