I would say yes. only because about 10 years ago, my CU worked with me when they repo'd my car. I got laid off from my job and tried to pay my monthly. I made small monthly just to show goodwill until i was not able to make any payments at all.

When the repo guy came and pulled the car, I contacted my CU. I told them that I had a full-time job lined up, but since the car was pulled, there's just no way for me to get the job. At that time, I was hired and was just finishing for the background check to be finished. Of course, I explained to the rep my whole situation. The rep talked to a supervisor and when she came back on the line, she told me that for me to get the car back, I have to pay the 3 months I missed and pay the repo fees. She then told me that it would've been better if I talked to them to begin with when my financial trouble started...she said the could've found a way to help me before getting the car repo'd.

If a mortgage payment is 20 days late will that be reported to the credit bureaus?

Generally, late payments over 30 days late are reported to a credit reporting agency. After that, late mortgage payments can become "missed" mortgage payments. And missed payments can affect your credit score in a negative way. However, your exact late payment will depend on how your specific mortgage lender reports payments to the credit bureaus.


How can a person get a no money down mortgage if they have bad credit?

This is a very unlikely scenario. Firstly, the individual must attempt to clean up their credit by raising their credit score- or by having a cosigner who is willing to accept all responsibilities of late payments and non-payments.


Can late payments come off your credit report?

Yes late payments can come off your credit report. They can be removed by either the original creditor that put it on there or by the credit bureaus. You can dispute late payments on your credit report with the credit bureaus using the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The FCRA requires the credit bureaus to contact the creditors to verify the late payment. If the late payment isn't verified it must be removed.


How can you increase your credit score do to late payments?

Yes, you can increase your credit score by removing late payments from your credit report. You can either contact the creditor that placed the late payments and ask on good faith to have them removed. Some creditors will remove them if it is a one time occurrence, but most won't. You can also dispute the late payments to the credit bureaus. Depending on how old the are and how severe, they can come off your credit report. This will most likely remove the whole account thought, but 1 late payments is worse than all the good credit you can get from a good payment history.

If you fail to pay credit card payments on time how long will the missed payments be reported on your credit report?

Seven years. However, they will have less effect as time goes by. For example, late payments over a year old do not harm your credit as much as late payments from last month. Late payments over 2 years old are generally ignored.

The bank and the credit bureaus are the only ones that could remove the late payments. If the bank waived the late payments, they will probably remove them from your credit as well. You will need to contact them to negotiate that. Otherwise you will have to dispute them to the credit bureaus. They will have 30 days to verify them or they must be removed.
