Experian has New Credit Advice Column

Do you understand your credit report? What about the other credit information? If you have been turned down for a loan, or if your score is not as high as you think it should be, do you know why? Now, for the first time Experian is helping consumers understand concepts about credit that were previously left for only those in the industry.

Ask Max

For the first time ever, a credit bureau has put a credit advice column on their website, in the form of Ask Max, the advice column written by Maxine Sweet, their vice president of public education. She addresses issues that are important to the consumer in a way that is both educational and easy to understand.

Why will this help you?

Are you reeling from a credit decision that did not go your way? Are you considering cosigning for someone else? Do you need to know when to buy your house? If these are things that you are trying to figure out, this advice column can help you.

Why it’s so important

Rarely can consumers get real advice from the industry regarding their credit. This advice column is aimed to help consumers so they can get on their feet financially and avoid costly credit mistakes.

This is a proactive measure that consumers can take in order to secure their financial futures.

Answers to Questions You Want to Know

You can ask questions, and if selected, Maxine Sweet will write a column regarding your question. However, you do not have to have your question selected in order to get something out of the column. It is an excellent resource for people who are looking to get educated on credit matters.

You have the tools to get the knowledge that you need about credit. Credit decisions are difficult, but with the proper guidance, you can make the correct decisions. Use the tools that Experian offers in order to get your credit in order.
