Important Legal Disclosures

No guarantee of results. This calculator is provided for general educational and informational purposes only. Nothing on this page constitutes a promise, prediction, or guarantee of any improvement to your credit score, credit report, or credit history. Individual results vary significantly based on the specific contents of your credit file, which items are legally disputable, creditor and bureau responses, and your financial behavior during and after any credit repair process.

Federal law (CROA). Under the Credit Repair Organizations Act (15 U.S.C. § 1679b), it is unlawful for any credit repair organization to make any statement that is untrue or misleading about the services it will provide, or to make any promise of a specific outcome. We comply fully with the CROA and all applicable FTC regulations. You have the right to cancel any signed contract within 3 business days without penalty.

You can do this yourself. You have the right to dispute inaccurate information on your credit report directly with the credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion) at no cost under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA, 15 U.S.C. § 1681). Credit repair organizations cannot do anything for you that you cannot legally do for yourself.

Rate and savings figures. All interest rates, approval odds, and savings comparisons shown are national averages sourced from publicly available data and are provided for illustrative comparison only. They do not reflect rates you will be offered by any specific lender.
