Use Door to Door Loans to improve your credit history

By Paul Walsh


The main reason that people look for Door to Door Lenders for easy cash is because they do not have a decent credit score, many of the borrowers have arrears and even several CCJ's (County Court Judgments) in the past. Because most doorstep lenders don't carry out credit checks (realizing that most of their customers have bad credit), they charge greater interest rates than the banks to cover the risks associated with poor credit.

Well, Doorstep Lenders may not be interested in your credit report, however just like any legal money lenders, they are required by to report your monthly payment record to the credit bureaus. (Take note that illegal money lenders are not going to report your repayment records). This also means that you have an opportunity to improve your credit rating if you can maintain a good repayment history with the Doorstep Loan.

Well, to be completely honest, you have to make a decision by yourself here: you can choose to skip repayment obligations and imagine that you don't owe anything. Otherwise, you can decide to build an improved credit by repaying before the due dates, and repay at least the weekly instalment. Anyway, when we say "repaying punctually", we actually mean "making payments punctually, every single time, until you clear the loan".

Well, here comes the most crucial question: why would you want to try to improve your credit, anyway?

If you are not aware, your credit history is probably the most important documents in your financial life - you count on it to fund your property, you need it to get a cheaper personal loan from the banks and major money lenders - besides, very few people are aware about this: by having a great credit rating, you can also get a more affordable insurance with far better benefits.

Hence, how can you make full use of your Door to Door Loan to build a good credit score?

The best way is this: stick to your repayment plan until you pay off your debts, and treat it as your main priority. Before you sign the loan agreement, you should already have a plan in place to improve your credit - you must not borrow too much money, to be able to pay back the loan without much trouble. If you can hardly afford the payment, it just take a tiny change in your life circumstances, and you are likely to leave a black mark in the credit report.

Hence, try your best to avoid the trap of asking for too much credit - try not to be too occupied to fix your urgent financial issues, instead, consider this: could you pay the weekly instalments? If you become unemployed, just how long can you keep on to pay? Try to remember this fact: your collection agent, Door to Door lender and the credit agencies never care the reason you have difficulties to repay your loan, they are going to truthfully submit your instalment history anyway.

If you are already confident that you know your finances and you can easily repay your Doorstep Loan, congratulations - you are one step closer to a better credit rating. Next, you only need to have the self-discipline to stick to the repayment plan until the debt is paid off. Generally, always be on time with your payment, and never, ever be late.
