1. Limit your expenses
2. the best way is to pay bills that will be reported to the credit reporting agencies on time, it is better to be late on a heating bill then a credit card, with the rise of inflation it seems that we are all in the same boat. but the credit card companies still send out all those applications every day in the mail. it seems like once you get caught up the bills start rolling in again. it is never ending.

I did debt consolidation a couple of years ago, however If I had to do it again I would pay to some minor details, if someone wants to get out of debt today it is pretty easy with a debt consolidation plan, however it may get a bit tricky at times, I suggest you get as much information as possible online on this first, a good place to start in my humble opinion is astraight to the point ebook with question and answer I found : http://umgarticles.atspace.com/debt-consolidation.htm if it helps kindly remember me in your voting!.. cheers!
6. ======================================= The TRUTH About Credit Repair... -by Terry Price (C) Copyright Terry Price All Rights Reserved http://gaby1221.niesong.hop.clickbank.net ======================================= Have you ever wondered what companies send you when they claim you can erase bad credit overnight? How about those ads that say you can get any major credit card without a deposit or a credit check? Ads abound almost everywhere these days (online and off) selling books, systems and secrets to help you fix your credit. Many of these programs have claims which read like the covers of supermarket tabloids: "In 3hrs my credit score jumped from 580 to 676!"... "Erase bad credit and smash your debts with just 2 Magic Letters!". Are these types of claims ALWAYS too good to be true? The answer is "Yes and... no". While many people would love for you to believe the only thing that can fix bad credit is time; in reality... nothing could be further from the truth. The fact is, time is only one factor which can fix a credit report, but it's a far cry from being the only factor. How can I back this up? Easy. Under a consumer protection law known as the Fair Credit Reporting Act (a.k.a. the FCRA) the only negative information which can remain on your credit report is not what is accurate... but what can be proved as accurate under the FCRA. What's this mean to you? It means any negative item on your credit report can only remain there if it is accurate and CAN BE PROVED AS SUCH under the guidelines of the FCRA. This undisputable fact presents consumers with both good news and bad news. The good news is that through the FCRA your credit score can most likely be improved dramatically in a very short period of time with only a modest amount of effort on your part. The bad news is that while the actual "work" will take very little of your time, it is vital that you have good information on "how" to go about it. This is the bad news; 9 out of 10 courses on restoring your credit will do nothing more than lead you into snake pits because they will provide you with what the industry refers to as "Boiler Plate" dispute letters. These are nothing more than form letters and... quite frankly (more bad news) the Credit Bureaus and Creditors will laugh at you if you try to use them. While I agree with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) that "Anything a Credit Repair Clinic can do for you legally, you can do for yourself at little or not cost"... the key element you need for success is the latest inside techniques and procedures to get the results you want. This involves strategies such as "Proof of Contract", "Constructive Notice", "Challenge of Procedure" or "Restrictive Endorsement" and many others. All these terms may "sound" impressive but they are really quite simple. In the end, it is nothing more than a method of communication which exercises your consumer protection rights, gets the results you want and raises your credit score. Even more impressive, once you learn how simple it can be by doing it for yourself, you will find there is a fortune to be made doing it for others!

7. The bigger stuff like that is generally hard to do. I think basically they just letter bomb the appropriate companies/bureaus and hope something sticks. I came across this, which might be more helpful: www.shoplands.cm/creditrepair. Good luck to you! ;)
8. tax leins and discharged bankruptcy can not be wiped out by a "bad credit" repair company. What they do is scam you. They do the same thing that you could do if you didn't have the tax leins and discharged bankruptcy that takes a limited amount of time to come off automatically. 10 years for sure on the bankruptcy. tax leins may be longer. You do not have to pay back the discharged bankruptcy to get your credit back. It will happen in 10 years. But you can grow your credit back slowly as the 10 years go away. You do that by paying your bills on time and making sure you don't apply for to many loans in a short period of time. Also, try not to have more out going than incoming money's as far as the credit agencies can see. Make sure you pay your utilities on time also because they can also lower your score. I have no idea about the tax lein as far as paying them back to remove it.. Hopefully that isn't one of those that is on there forever... GOOD LUCK...
