Reclaim financial control and security with identity theft repair specialists

 For the most part, credit restoration is required when someone over-extends themselves by borrowing money and/or fails to make repayments. However, there is a particularly sinister form of bad credit, and it can take you by complete surprise… 

Identity theft or fraud is a criminal act that occurs when someone’s personal details are stolen or forged without permission and used to appropriate their identity. The criminal exploits the information to apply for loans or withdraw money from personal bank accounts. Fraud victims can be left traumatised and financially compromised and the damage can snowball and last for years, which is why we recommend specialist intervention. 

Real Credit Repairers are experts in identity theft repair. We understand and are sensitive to the turmoil and shock involved in such cases, and we work quickly to protect our clients and restore their credit rating.

Fraudulent hard credit enquiries explained 

In addition to effectively robbing you, this type of criminal behaviour can leave a lasting imprint in other insidious ways. An unauthorised credit application can lead to a fraudulent hard credit inquiry on your credit report, negatively affecting your credit score and ongoing financial well-being. It is imperative to rectify this wrong - you should not be left to suffer from someone else’s deception.
