THE NUMBER VS. THE STORY

The number

The story behind it

  • Payment history
  • Balances
  • Enquiries
  • Account statusCheck this

Your score is the number. Your report is the story. Most people only look at the number.

Closed

You repaid the loan in full as agreed.

Settled

The lender accepted less than the full amount; lenders read this less favourably.

Read: Settled vs closed

A real default can’t be deleted. A wrong one can be corrected.

If something in your report is incorrect, there’s a proper process to dispute it. If it’s accurate, the path forward is time and good habits, and we’ll be honest about which one you’re facing.
