How can I improve my credit with a bankruptcy?

    I filed for Chapter 7 and it was discharged in the summer of 2005. I was able to keep my house and my car, both of which were always paid on time. I have successfully been able to obtain two unsecured credit cards, refinanced my mortgage, and buy two new cars since then. My question is, what more can I do to repair my credit? Can I try to get the accounts that were included in the bankruptcy removed from my credit report through verification letters? Does this improve my credit score?

    Search the bankruptcy forum website. They can answer your question or you can find a similar one in the archives.

    Sorry about that, I guess I should have read the forum rules again concerning links on this forum. Anyway it is called bkforum.com
    It's a fantastic forum both for pre and post bankruptcy.
