Fair Credit Reporting Act Protects You
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, you have rights that allow you to keep the information in your files accurate and up to date. It also gives you the right to request that companies reinvestigate any inaccurate information or update information that may be too old to be reported. Asking a creditor to reinvestigate and providing any evidence you may have can be the key to protecting your credit.
