Is Credit Restoration Legal?

YES! It is legal. In fact, it is the best way to exercise your rights under the Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Fair and Accurate Credit Reporting Act. These laws were put into place to protect consumers from the intrusion of the credit bureaus into our lives. They also provide each of us with a checks and balance system, giving us the right to question the validity, accuracy and ownership of the information being reported about us and sold to others. Insuring that only information that is 100% accurate and verifiable is being provided to potential lenders, employers, and insurance agencies, so that we are not being unnecessarily overcharged for lending or insurance premiums or denied employment due to erroneous credit reporting.

Can information really be corrected or deleted from my credit reports?

Absolutely! If it is not 100% accurate, if it is misleading, outdated, obsolete, or can no longer be verified, by federal law it must be updated or removed.

Are credit bureaus a government agency?

Absolutely NOT! They are simply privately owned companies that make money by selling our information to anyone who will buy it.

Does paying an old debt help my credit score?

Paying an old debt can potentially help your credit score, however it can also change the date of last activity and extend the time period in which that account can be reported. The account should be updated to show a zero balance, but will still report that it was in collections, charged off or that you were delinquent on it in the past, which will still have a negative impact on your credit score. This is unfortunate, because it does not appropriately reward you for attempting to do the right thing.

Do I still owe the debt if an item is deleted from my credit report?

If an item you have requested MWR Credit Restoration to dispute on your behalf is deleted, due to the fact that it was unverifiable or being reported incorrectly and you owed money on the account, you will still owe the money. Getting an item deleted from your credit history does not take away the responsibility of the debt. However, your MWR Financial Edge membership does provide additional service to assist you with settling or eliminating these debts Please schedule a Debt Relief Consultation to learn what your options are.

Can information be re-reported or reappear if it has previously been deleted?

It is highly unlikely and happens very rarely! However, if you still owe money on an account that you have requested to be investigated and that item is deleted, the creditor can possibly re-report it at a later date, especially if there is any additional activity on the account. Based on our experience, this typically occurs if an account is sold or turned over to an outside collection agency. If this ever happens, the credit reporting agencies are also required to notify you in advance of re-reporting any item that has previously been deleted and CreditMAX, upon your request, will request a reinvestigation of the account.
