Credit rating
Continued from page A4
A lot of the materials that goes into your
credit bureau file conies from information
you. supplied when- you idled out _au
application for credit from a department
store, oil company or other credit -granting
organization. A .typical report will contain
such items as your occupation, income, how
',long you lived in your present residence and
a list of all the uses you have made of credit
in the past.
That credit -history will include a code
number which' will signify your rating. The
higher the number; the higher credit risk
you are considered to be.
For example, a rating of 1 indicates you
pay your debts within ,30 days"ot billing, or'
faithfully follow an agreed-upon repayment
regime. A rating of 2 shows you take more
than 30 days but less than 60 days to pay_
your ,debts, or. that you don't fall more
than one payment past a due date.
A rating with the code number 8 means
there has been a repossession, and a rating
of 9 indicates a bad debt or that the account
has been turned over to a collection agency.
Some consumer groups have criticized the
credit bureau 'system as an invasion of
privacy. However. bureaus are only sup-
posed to disclose information from their files
to legitimate businesses which provide
credit to the public; or a would-be employer
may consider it necessary to make a
credit -rating check on a potential employe .
Some landlords also may subscribe to Fa
credit bureau's services, to determ tle'i
whether a would-be tenant has a history of '
skipping out on debts.
In the final analysis, having a credit-ratini
system works to•the public good. As long as
you have a reasonable credit history, you
should have no difficulty in obtaining further
credit. A lot of people would find it hareto
get credit if eothing was on file about them.
