It is important to understand that every credit repair company sets their own pricing. In fact, one of the reasons Cure My Score was started in 2008 was due to pricing issues within the industry. Over my many years in this industry I have seen pricing all over the board. I have seen quite affordable programs, like our $89 monthly unlimited credit repair, and very expensive programs. Interestingly enough, I have not seen where a consumer would benefit more from an expensive program. One thing is for certain, if you are looking into hiring a credit repair company, understand 100% on how their pricing works before engaging their services.

Answering this question based on the services offered at www.curemyscore.com and our 14 years of experience, the consumers who get very little help or value from any credit repair service:
1. Have a pattern of missing future payments and/or experience new derogatory credit events.
2. Do not want to listen and learn how to improve their credit. Credit scoring is complicated, and we do our best to educate each client what steps they need to improve their score. A consumer typically will not benefit if they do not follow the advice and education they are given.
3. Blame everything and everyone else for their credit issues. Some consumers want to blame the credit system for not being fair.
Like it or not, if you want to borrow money now or in the future, there is an exceptionally good chance your credit will be used in that transaction. For those who feel that the credit system is unfair, they would still greatly benefit in taking the actions they need to improve their credit rating and score. If you choose to work with a professional credit repair company, understand their program, billing, and fees to get your money’s worth. Follow the credit advice you get and be sure to stay current on all your future financial obligations.
