1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your time, September 23, 2001

By 

Jason Derbyshire (Phoenix, AZ) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Complete Guide To Credit Repair (Paperback)

This book told me nothing. Its filled with common information and he drags it out paragraph after paragraph. You can clearly see this is quickly put together with no REAL research for a profit. If you know you have to dispute any credit errors with the credit companies, than you already have more information than whats in this book. If you are a complete ... and don;t know anything about credit, you MIGHT get something out of this. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME. MOST OF IT IS USELESS SAMPLE FORMS.

5.0 out of 5 stars EASY to READ & EASIER to USE, March 4, 2001

By 

Patrick (New York, New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Complete Guide To Credit Repair (Paperback)

My credit isn't that bad; however, I do have a few dings here and there. I've been meaning to work on finding out how to fix my credit when I ran across "The Complete Guide to Credit Repair." This book is so easy to read and understand my children could fix their credit, if they had any. The book walks you through, step by step, what you need to do to get your credit back on the right track. The other information about establishing credit, dealing with collection agencies, knowing what lenders are looking for and the FTC are added bonuses. This book is a great resource to have by your side.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book is terrible! Don't waste your money!, November 5, 2001

This review is from: The Complete Guide To Credit Repair (Paperback)

Unfortunately I had to file for bankruptcy several years ago. Since some time has passed since I filed, I bought this book with the hopes that there might be some useful information that could help me get started cleaning up problems on my credit report. This book didn't even explain how to deal with inaccuracies on your report, but rather spouted off with a bunch of high morality bs. For example, there are mentions that finding your religion will help you. I'm sorry, I don't see a connection there. And I know I didn't pay good money for this book to get preached to.

Well, I was still trying to have an open mind with this book. There might be some good info to come, right? WRONG! Here is an example of methods described in this book to re-establish credit. It says you should apply for credit cards, but never apply to banks that spell bank with a "c" at the end, like this "banc". Huh? What the heck is this author talking about?

Find another book on the subject, there has to be a better one than this. There sure aren't any worse.
