Repair Credit Report Help

repairing credit?

I just tried to get a new car & my interest rate came back as 15%. I only have 2 outstanding accounts both under $200 and one is a medical bill. I will pay those off asap but what else can I do to repair my credit. I don't have any credit cards. Is that a bad thing? The only open account I have on my credit report is my car payment which has NEVER been late.

  1. I would check with different dealers and I would also wonder if you should wait until the accounts are taken care of first.
  2. Sounds like you don't have ENOUGH credit.....this is just as bad as BAD credit...try getting a credit card with a low limit so you can get some revolving credit...I really don't know how much a medical bill hurts your credit so if you get that paid off you should be even better.... You mention another outstanding account ~ is it collections? IF so that's a big negative factor but without knowing what it is I can't suggest anything but to pay that too...
