How I Went From Evictions and 400 Credit to Buying a House

Honestly I do not enjoy writing much, but I have to let the world know about this genius that helped me. Seriously, I needed a home for my family, but I couldn’t get one because of the Evictions, my current scores are in the 400's and dropped from the mid 500’s because of late payments. I recently lo...st my job and have only been employed recently. I took out tons of credit cards during college to get by and maxed them out. After college due to health reasons I did not always have steady work. Finally, for the first time in my life, I have steady work and can build myself up. However I’ve tanked my credit, I felt hopeless about it. I really would like to get back to the 500’s-700’s by this time next year. I read about SAFEPORT CREDIT SPECIALIST at Quora and Reddit. Few days after I contacted safeport credit specialist they increased my scores to 803 and improved my credit profile by removing the evictions, charge offs and late payments. I’ve never seen such a relentless and amazing service in my life before. They made my next year dream of getting a home for my family come through this year. Got our first key at Kenosha $278k at 6.875%. I swear to God I never believed I’ll be able to get a home for my family this year. Wish I could express how happy I feel now with this message. SAFEPORT CREDIT SPECIALIST really did it for me. I urge everyone to contact them for any related credit issues. Email [email protected]

Restoring More Than Just Credit

In April of this year my mom asked me to open a credit card to pay for flight tickets. It was supposed to be no more than $700. She said she would pay it off in 2 months. Fast forward 4 months later and my mom sends me a message saying that she accidentally paid the card late that month but she will ...pay once she gets her next check. Up until this point I’ve never looked at the account because I had no reason to. When she told me that I decided to log on and pay off the rest of what she owed because I had some extra money. When I opened the account, I was very shocked to see that she owed over $1,800. I did notice that I kept receiving emails that my credit score was dropping, but I didn’t pay much attention to it . I am a longtime authorized user on one of my mom’s credit cards, and it normally changes based on her activity. Upon further research, I noticed it was significantly dropping because of this card. I got scared because I am in medical school and I’m going to eventually need my credit score for private loans during the third year when I can no longer get money from the government. To make a long story short, I told her that she didn’t have to worry about paying it anymore because I will take it over. I did this because I had money to help out, and I thought it would be a kind thing to do since she was clearly struggling to pay it off. The only thing that I asked was for her not to continue using the card while I got the balance down. She immediately got defensive and it became a much bigger thing. She cut up the credit card and accused me of trying to hurt her. After that, I removed her from being an authorized user to prevent her from logging onto the account and paying the balance down with money I knew she didn’t have and keep her from unlocking her authorized card. I am very new to credit, so I thought that removing her was simply removing her access to the account. Our relationship eventually repaired. However, she angrily texted me and told me that her credit score dropped nearly 200 points and it was because of me removing her. I feel terrible because I didn’t know it would happen. Had I known I wouldn’t have done it. So I asked a question on a credit forum. Is it possible that removing her has caused this much damage and if so, what can I do to help her? A friend immediately recommended SAFEPORT CREDIT SPECIALIST. He Testified how Safeport Credit Specialist has helped so many people with their credit issues. So immediately emailed them on: [email protected] he responded and upon reaching agreements with him, he promised to get the scores up back within 12 days maximum and remove all negative items on the report including lates payments/credit card debts. 6 days later all negative items were erased including late payment was all marked as paid on time. SAFEPORT CREDIT SPECIALIST raised her scores to 800+. I’m so excited for what he did for me and my mom. She now has a good credit profile. If you need help in fixing your credit, I’ll recommend you to them and get yours fixed too.

Honest attorney and great human being

Robert takes the the time to explain things thoroughly when you get overwhelmed by the process. My case took 2 years and he still had time every step of the way to talk to me when needed. All I had to do was send him an email and he would call me to explain away any doubts I had. He had a couple ...of associate attorneys that worked for him that weren't too concerned with the details but seemed a lot more concerned with loading up on billable hours. Even though I wasn't going to be charged for those but it seemed they did it so it would seem to Robert like they were being productive. They have since moved on and aren't working at the firm anymore. I highly recommend Robert Klinger if you need an attorney.
