Hi payingtomuch

Welcome to the forums. You can view the total amount of your debt in your credit report. You can get your latest credit report from the three credit bureaus and know your latest financial position.

What information does the credit report contain?

Personal information:

  • Name
  • Alias Names
  • Address
  • Past Addresses
  • Social Security Number
  • Date of Birth
  • Drivers License

  • Employer
  • Past Employers
  • Past Phone Numbers
  • Spouse's Name
  • Home Owner
  • Geo Code

    This information gets added by each member company that sends in tapes, or even pulls credit reports. The CRAs system collects new data all of the time.

    Public Records:

    Bankruptcy

    Tax Liens
    [list=1]

    This information is collected by independent sources that collect and resell to credit reporting agencies as well as other types of businesses.

    Credit Information:

    Creditor Accounts:
    [list=1]
  • Name of Creditor
  • Account number (soon to be truncated, not to show entire account numbers).
  • Open Date
  • Reported Date
  • Last Activity Date
  • Status Date
  • ECOA Codes (showing if individual, joint, co-signer, or authorized user accounts)
  • Type of Account (Revolving, Installment, Auto, Education, Collection... )
  • High Credit
  • High Balance
  • Current Balance
  • Past Due Amount
  • Terms (like if an installment loan is 360 payments @ $200 per month, or open account with minimum payment of $50 per month).
  • Status of Account (as agreed, current was 30 days late, collection, charge off, closed, inactive, open.. )
  • Lates (will give the date and what the delinquency was for that time)
  • Notes (like account closed by subscriber or consumer, account included in wage earner plan, subscriber can no locate... )

    Collection Accounts:
    [list=1]
  • Same as above fields, but in addition:
  • Original Creditors Name (if medical only consumer reports will show the name).
  • Assign Date, when the delinquency should be formulated from on the reporting times).

    Inquiries:
    [list=1]
  • Name of Company
  • Date of Inquiry
  • Type of Company
  • Purpose for accessing

    ** Last 2 are not always provided

    List of Companies having accessed credit reports for permissible purpose, meaning that you had given them verbal or written authorization... or if you owed on a debt (they can pull w/out authorization because of balance owing). These stay on credit report for 2 years, but only affect the scoring for 1 year. These are called hard inquiries.

    List of companies having received your name & address for solicitation purposes, they have not actually viewed your credit report so will not show up on the creditors side unless you complete application for credit. These are soft inquiries and include all pulls you have done on yourself, will stay on credit report for 2 years.

    After you enroll in the debt consolidation program, the creditors will send you a monthly statement of your account where your installment was paid. You will be able to know the status of your account and how much more will be left to clear off that particular account. Additionally, the debt consolidation company will also send you a consolidated statement which will furnish the details of all your creditors who have received your installment proportionately.
