Consumers have rights on credit report
A poor credit report can make
it difficult for you to buy a house
or car, or get certain jobs. Yet,
until recently consumers had
little protection against credit
reports containing erroneous,
incomplete or dated information.
"The Federal Trade Com-
mission’s Fair Credit Reprting
Act now gives consumers some
rights that can help them clear a
poor credit report," says Nancy
L. Granovsky, a family economics
specialist with the Texas A&M
University Agricultural Exten-
sion Service.
For example, if you have been
denied credit or employment
b^causeof information in a credit
report, you have the right to be
told the name and address of the
reporting agency, she explains.
Then that agency must tell you
the nature, content, and source
of all the information in your
credit file, except medical infor-
mation.
The agency must also reveal
who has received a consumer
report on you within the last six
months, or the last two years if
the report was for employment
purposes, advises Granovsky.
According to the specialist,
you should get this information
free of charge if you request it
within 30 days of being denied
credit. After that, you may be
charged a fee for the disclosure.
You can also request in writing
a telephone interview or visit the
agency in person, Granovsky
points out. The agency may
require some information for
identification purposes, but you
are not required to furnish any
information other than to esta-
blish who you are.
"Most importantly, you can
challenge incorrect, unverified or
incomplete information in your
files, and it must be removed."
says Granvosky. If the issue is
not resolved, you may explain
your side of the story in 100
words to be included in future
reports.
The agency must also inform
those who have recently received
the report of any item which the
agency deletes, without any
charge to you.
"The best policy is to maintain
a good credit record,” says
Granovsky, "and when there is a
problem, exercising your con-
sumer rights may help you
resolve it.”

As Manager of Church's Fried Chicken, I'd like to
invite you to dinner at my place.
I'm very proud of the delicious, high-quality fried
chicken we serve at Church's, and I am equally as proud
of the friendly Church's people who serve it.
If you love your fried chicken big, tender and juicy
like Ido, then I know you're going to love Church's.
And even though you always get our good food at a low
Church's price, I hope you'll
. accept these money saving
coupons as my own personal
invitation, as well as my way of
saying "welcome to Church's'.'
Hope to see you soon!
Sincerely,
Bobby Ziegler
