Questions related to credit card management and use of credit to achieve your financial goals I have found on google that my screename has been linked to some garbage financial sites, that I have nothing to do with Please ask me to verify this if you are not sure and let me know who is making any claims so i can sue their asses off this is my website or my blog http://www.geocities.com/tbaarr/night_vision.html http://www.tbaarr.blogspot.com/

Experience
i own over 10 credit cards

8 of these have credit limits over 10k and i use 2 of them to invest with

i have the balance as a fixed life of the loan balance transfer

and make 10 points profit on the money

Organizations
none

I retired doing this in 1996

and wish to pass on my experience. BE aware I got married in 1998 and started Driving Rig in 2004 so that I could get affordable quality Heath insurance for my family as I now have 2 beautiful daughters 4 and 8 as of aug 2007, so I may take longer to answer som questions. i cover such subjects as, my approach to credit, how to establish and maintain multiple accounts, how i get single digit life of the loan balance transfers, how i use their money for 45 days interest free, how i use credit cards to invest for 30% a year profit, and how i maintain a 650+ credit rating while holding 5 or more accounts. I challege anyone have me compare any answer, that suze orman gives on her tv show, to what i would suggest as i find her answers just plain incompetant, especially when she states that borrowing money from an ira causes you to pay double taxation. Thats just plain wrong

Answer
i would just challange and admit nothing

let them prove the bad credit or remove it in 30 working days

if they prove the late

then look at your statement for that period

and verify your payment date

and then use bbb for relief if they are in error

as for the poss acct thats not yours
again force them to prove the account exists

with a challenge

then if it is in fact not yours

file a police report

and then seek relief under the fed laws related to

identity theft

challenge everything

make them prove or remove everything

then address the items proven 1 at a time

good luck
