What is DIY credit repair?
Where else can I get credit repair help?
The CFPB and FTC provide free consumer education. IdentityTheft.gov provides a recovery starting point for identity theft. A qualified nonprofit credit counselor can help with budgeting and debt options, while legal aid or an attorney can help with legal disputes.
Use Your Credit Path strategy for learning and organization, and seek other help when the situation needs it. If you have court papers, do not wait for a credit report dispute to resolve the court case.
