I no longer provide credit services

I no longer offer credit services other than for clients I previously worked with. I’ve been litigating against credit bureaus, creditors and collectors since about 2000. We had STRONG legislation protecting consumers, but the Fair Credit Reporting Act was weakened in 2003. Our corrupt legislators FAILED to amend the Fair Debt Collection Practices to adjust […]

Dwolla.com payments from bank accounts for 25 cents

I just updated the CreditFactors order page to include Dwolla payment buttons and I installed the Dwolla plugin for the CreditFactors Membership signup.

Welcome to the new CreditFactors blog

I hadn’t done any major updates for my CreditFactors site since 2003. Now that I’m almost done, I know why: It’s a LOT of work! I decided to move the site to a BLOG format and to focus on FICO scores, bugs, new discoveries, credit reporting and collection issues. With over 2000 posts, the CreditSuit.org […]
