GREAT QUESTION!
These Topics Are Great For Learning More About Credit Repair & Financial Coaching
What Is Credit Repair & Financial Coaching? These are proven strategies to help consumers raise their credit scores and achieve their financial dreams and goals.
Credit repair removes negative accounts that are incorrect, outdated or cannot be verified by the major credit bureaus. These accounts are problematic since they usually cause your credit score to be lower. This includes:
- Bankruptcy
|
- Foreclosure
|
- Repossessions
|
Financial coaching maximizes your scores for open accounts and also includes adding new accounts to help build good credit.
Who Do You Provide Services For? We proudly serve clients throughout the state of Illinois including Aurora, Chicago, Naperville, Elgin, Joliet, Rockford, Peoria, Springfield, Northern/Southern Illinois and surrounding areas.
What Are Your Business Hours? Our business hours are as follows:
- Monday thru Friday 9 am to 6 pm

How Long Does Someone Need To Enroll In Your Program? Some credit bureaus may report changes to your credit scores within 30, 60 or 90 days. However, the recommended time frame to get the best results is usually 6-9 months. Since bad credit normally develops over a period of time, the strategies to fix this also take time. Due to federal laws that protect both consumers and lenders, unfortunately we cannot offer a "quick fix" program.

This includes a free credit assessment from Experian, along with starting a 7-day trial subscription with Credit Hero Score for $1 so that we can review your credit reports from all three of the major credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian and TransUnion).

The following additional documentation will also be required within 5 days after enrollment:

Will I Be Charged During My FREE CONSULTATION? No, you will not be charged for your free consultation. Your billing information and a signed client agreement are required prior to your consultation per federal consumer laws. After your consultation, you will have 3 business days to decide whether you're ready to start your credit repair journey with us.
After Deciding To Enroll, Will I Be Billed Automatically? Yes, if you decide to continue with our services after your free consultation, the debit/credit card number that you provided will be billed when your payment is due. Your payment information is stored securely and only the last 4 digits of your card number are visible for verification purposes.
The first payment is usually due when your Credit Audit & Analysis is ready for review (within 5 business days after the free consultation). Then you will be billed every 30 days while services are being provided. If you would like to update your billing information, request to change your payment due date or request to cancel further services, please Email Billing@FinancialOvercomers.com at least 5 business days before your payment due date. Our goal is to reply within 1-2 business days during regular business hours.
What Is Your Cancellation Policy? You will have 3 business days to cancel your initial contract before any services are provided. After you enroll and work has been started, you may also cancel at any time by notifying us in writing at least 5 business days in advance. We will finalize any work that is being performed and also issue a final invoice to settle your account.
Do All Clients Receive A FREE Credit Assessment? Yes, request your FREE Credit Assessment while signing up for your free consultation. The credit assessment provides instant insight into the positive and negative accounts that Experian is reporting for you. After enrollment, you will receive a more comprehensive Credit Audit & Analysis that includes all three of the major credit bureaus so that we can recommend a complete personalized strategy to raise your credit scores.
How Long Can Good Accounts and Bad/Negative Accounts Be Included On My Credit Report?
- Good accounts increase credit scores and typically stay on credit reports for at least 10 years, however they may remain indefinitely
- Bad/negative accounts that lower your credit scores will usually be removed after 7 years, however a Chapter 7 bankruptcy can be reported for 10 years
Will My Credit Score Drop If I Hire Your Company? No, we are simply a service provider and hiring us to review your credit reports will not initiate a hard inquiry. Your credit score will only drop if you do something negative that affects your credit report.
Can I File My Own Disputes? Yes, the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) allows consumers to dispute their own credit reports either online or by mail. However, credit repair companies have both the time and experience to follow up with the credit bureaus and collection agencies, and get the best results for their clients. Credit repair is similar to many other services that require a high level of expertise such as income tax preparation or legal services. The average consumer doesn't have the expertise to search for errors, inaccuracies, violations and successfully remove negative items. Also, when you dispute online, only a limited amount of information can be submitted, which generally works against you. Hiring a credit repair company may be your best option.
What Is The Purpose Of Credit Monitoring? Credit monitoring provides us with your data from the 3 major credit bureaus for the initial Credit Audit & Analysis, and also for your monthly status updates. A credit monitoring service is required throughout the credit repair process. After you set up your account, the service provider will bill you separately. Since credit monitoring usually provides additional benefits such as identity theft protection, it is recommended that you maintain this after your credit repair process has been completed.
Do You Recommend A Preferred Credit Monitoring Service? Yes, Credit Hero Score imports data from all 3 credit bureaus and the monthly subscription price is very reasonable. If you already have a 3-bureau credit monitoring subscription with Credit Hero Score or another credit monitoring service, we will let you know whether we can use your existing service. Since we review all 3 credit bureaus on a monthly basis, Credit Karma, the Experian App and other 1-bureau credit score providers do not meet our requirements.
Is Credit Repair Legal? Yes! Learn about the steps that we take to help you achieve Your Best Credit Score. The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) is federal legislation that allows consumers to hire a credit repair company and benefit from our expertise.
Can You Help Me Achieve My Financial Goals? Yes! Your Success Story is our #1 priority, so let's get started on helping you achieve your dreams and goals.
Can You Help Me Learn More About My Credit Reports? Yes! Knowledge is power and Credit 101 will give you a very good foundation. It also indicates how financial mistakes can negatively impact your credit score, so that you'll know what to avoid.
Can This Program Work For Me? Yes! Credit Repair Tips includes several steps that successsful clients follow, along with our recommendations to keep your scores from dropping. Some credit bureaus may report changes to your credit scores within 30, 60 or 90 days. However, the recommended time frame to get the best results is usually 6-9 months. Since bad credit normally develops over a period of time, repairing bad credit also takes time. Due to federal laws that protect consumers and lenders, we cannot offer a "quick fix" program.
Can You Recommend Ways To Increase My Credit Score? Yes! After your negative items have been disputed, Build Good Credit with the various strategies that our credit repair and financial coaching plans include.
Is Credit Repair & Financial Coaching Affordable? Yes! We offer Payment Plans to fit your budget. Discounts are available.
Can I Refer Other People That Might Also Be Interested? Yes! Sign up for our Referral Bonuses. Earn money that can be used towards your credit repair program or simply consider it "extra income" each month.
Will I Have Access To Updates On My Account? Yes, after completing your enrollment, you will have 24/7 access to our Client & Affiliate Portal to review the progress that is being made. If you have questions about your monthly results, please call us at the phone number that was provided during enrollment or email us at ClientSuccess@FinancialOvercomers.com.
Does Your Company Comply With The Federal and State Guidelines For Your Industry? Yes, we maintain full compliance with the Credit Repair Organizations Act (CROA).
Do You Process Credit Sweeps? No, credit sweeps are illegal unless you were a victim of identlty theft and every account on your credit report is a fraudulent account.
Do You Assist With Identity Theft? No, if you are a victim of identity theft, it is crucial to protect your finances and remove fraudulent accounts. If you have a credit monitoring service, contact them immediately. Credit Hero Score is our most popular credit monitoring service, and it's highly recommended to maintain this account after your credit repair process has been completed since identity theft can happen at any time. If you are a victim of identity theft but you don't have a credit monitoring service, you can also contact the three major credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian, or TransUnion), consider hiring a lawyer or search for general information on the internet.
Can Your Company Help If A Creditor Sues Me? No, we do not provide legal services. We recommend contacting your creditor to work out a payment plan or contacting a lawyer to resolve any issues.
Why Are Your Results More Effective? We have experience working with creditors and credit bureaus and we've also gained a superb knowledge of credit scoring. We have invested a great deal of time learning the laws that will help us remove negative information from your report, which enables us to offer you a flawless, money back guarantee. In many instances, we are able to successfully remove negative items simply by applying the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) during the dispute process. In other instances, other strategies are taken into consideration. Therefore, it may take time to see results, depending on the circumstances.
What is your 100% Money Back Guarantee? While your credit monitoring service is active during credit repair and financial coaching, updated credit reports will be available every 30-45 days. You are entitled to a 100% refund on all payments if:
- You have negative items on your credit report at the time of signing up
- You have not used a credit-consulting agency nor attempted to repair your credit within two years prior to signing up
- You have retained and paid for services for at least 6 months
- You submit all requested documentation within five (5) business days
- The credit bureaus do not remove any of the negative items that were worked on
- Your credit scores do not improve after using any of our recommended strategies
