ID Theft Protection and Credit History


Buff ID theft protection
Your credit history can help you make large purchases (like a new home or townhome!), open new credit accounts and help with ID theft protection. However, most people have questions concerning the negatives on their credit history usually when they are considering making a big purchase such as a new home or car.

In the article, “How long does information stay on my credit report?” the experts at the Equifax Finance Blog have mapped out exactly what consumers can expect when they have negatives on their credit report.

Starting with the basic question of, “what is a credit score?” consumers should be aware that all of the information rolled into your credit score comes from the reports that lenders have sent to the three credit reporting agencies, from public records and from collection agencies. Together these make up your credit score.
