The whole credit report enterprise should be chucked. You want to borrow money, take in some paycheck stubs, bank statements and paid utility bills. If you can't provide any of the three, you should not be borrowing money nor should anyone lend you any. :oldfogey:

thanks for posting that - good to see how other countries do this credit reporting thing. And OF COURSE, most nations don't allow 3rd parties to profit off of citizens private info. I've always considered that info MY PROPERTY and the credit reporting bureaus just stole it from all of us. I'd love to get a class action suit to SHUT THEM ALL DOWN and distribute the proceeds to everyone on their lists.

I don't know if lightning will strike me down now, but I actually agree with an article from the NYT's. I agree, time to shut these ****** down.

I always find it upsetting when I see someone inquiring as to whether closing an account will ding their credit, or if paying off their balances will ding their credit, or whatever. It's incredible that people are too nervous to manage their own finances for fear that the credit bureaus are going to hurt them in return.
