How do I update the personal information within my credit file?

Contact each of your creditors and make sure that they have your personal information correct in their records. As your creditors report information to the credit bureau's, the current information in your file will be updated. If you forget to update your personal information with any one of your creditors, they will continue to report incorrect information to the bureau's. The credit bureau's will then update your personal information to reflect your outdated or incorrect information. Updating your personal information with your creditors first will ensure that information reported to credit bureau's by your creditors is correct. After contacting your creditors, you may also contact the specific credit bureau's dispute center and request that your personal information be updated or corrected

Why Lenders Use Scores:

Typically, lenders want to see how you have fulfilled your credit obligations in the past to help them determine if they should approve your request for credit now, and to help them determine the terms of that credit. A FICOŽ score is a valuable guide to future risk based solely on credit file data. The higher the score, the lower the risk to lenders when extending new credit to a consumer. The score is an objective measurement of your credit risk at a particular point in time. Lenders may also evaluate other types of information... such as data you provide on the credit application (for example, income, how long you have lived at your residence, other banking relationships you may have) in their loan evaluation process.
