Give Me Credit Episode 37

You fix your credit report.Or at least, you think you do.The balance shows zero.The account says settled.The bankruptcy is discharged.And then… it shows up again.In this episode of Give Me Credit, we brought back attorney Jacob Hippensteel for a third time because the deeper we go into this system, the more problems we uncover.This time, we’re talking about the issues that don’t just hurt your score.They create real legal consequences.Bankruptcies that still report balances.Settlements that never fully settle.Zombie debt that comes back from the dead.Student loan errors tied to the CARES Act that are running up against legal deadlines.And the part most people never hear…There is a point where this stops being a credit repair issue and becomes a legal one.We also get into what the dispute process is really doing behind the scenes.Hint: it’s not just about fixing errors.
