Most creditor/clients of the CRA's report monthly via automated tapes. Some creditors report sporatically, some never report. Some only report when you are late, like utility companies.

Most creditors report on a 30 days cycle, but that isn't always the beginning or ending of the month. It will also take some time to report on your credit report. So probably you are looking at a 60 days turn around on most late payments.

How often do creditors report to the credit bureaus?

Creditors may report any time there is activity on your account, if a credit report is pulled [for a credit application] or if payments are made late. Capital One may report every month whereas a smaller department store card may not report at all. It solely depends on the creditor on how often the credit report is updated.


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.


What if you had a foreclosure and it is not on your credit report?

It sometimes takes a month or two to be added as a negative on your credit report.


What is the total amount of monthly credit card payments?

The total amount of monthly credit card payments is the sum of all the payments made towards credit card bills in a month.


Two Ways To Finance?

Vehicle financing can be done two ways. You can go to a buy here, pay here car dealership that will sometimes report to credit agencies. If you have good credit, you can finance a car at a larger dealership. Small buy here, pay here lots require a smaller down payment and the monthly payments are not as expensive. You have a choice of when you would like to make your payments during the month depending on how you get paid. Larger car dealers can offer specials to customers on down payments and monthly payments. They will definitely make a report to a credit agency, and the payment will be due at a certain point in the month.

Can you schedule your payments to credit card companies just slightly ahead of the date each month that they report to credit reporting agencies?

If you mean... Your payments are due May 5th and you pay May 5th payment on June 3rd... Then yes, they cannot report Mays payment as being 30 days late. I have been doing it every month for over a year trying to get caught up
