Today, a good credit score is very important for getting decent terms on credit–or for getting credit at all. But that’s just the beginning: Your credit score rating will also be reviewed by everyone from employers to cell phone carriers. Now, MSNBC/L.A. Times journalist Liz Weston has thoroughly up to date her best-selling guide to credit scores, with the most important new information for protecting (or rebuilding) yours. Your Credit Score, Fourth Edition thoroughly covers brand-new laws changing everything from how your credit score can be utilized to how you’ll be able to communicate with collectors. This edition also adds simple graphics revealing exactly how much skipped payments, bankruptcies, and other actions will lower your credit ratings, and how long it takes to rebound. You’ll be able to find new information on “FAKO” alternative scores, expanded coverage of short sales, foreclosures, the new FICO 8 Mortgage Score, and when to “walk away” from a mortgage. Learn how to give protection to yourself against new credit risks from social networking and mobile banking and how to safeguard against unethical or illegal use of credit scores by employers. Weston updates her expert guidance on the usage of FICO 08 to raise your score, fighting lower limits and higher rates, maintaining the right mix of cards and balances, bouncing back from bad credit, choosing credit “solutions” that help, not hurt… and a lot more!
