There are several things that one can do to quickly clean up their credit.
First start by checking your credit report.
Checking your credit report is quick, easy, and best of all...FREE! Every American is allowed by law a free copy of their credit report, from all three bureaus, every year.
Prove it.
The next thing to do is rid your credit of any errors or questionable debt. Ever looked at your report and wondered, for example, "Who is 123 collection agency, and why do I owe them money"? If so, ask that credit reporting agency to verify the accuracy of the debt.
On each agencies' website you will want to look for any negative reports. There you will find information on how to dispute a bad debt. What many people do not know is that it is the creditor's burden to provide accurate and verifiable proof that you owe that debt. You can quickly dispute a debt on each credit reporting agencies website. Once a dispute has been filed, the creditor (123 collection agency) then has 30 days to provide reliable and accurate proof that you owe this debt and that the amount is correct. If they fail to provide verification within the 30 days, BY LAW, the credit bureau must then remove that ding from your credit report.
