Value of credit rating

[DUMBDOG]

I am by no means an expert on credit, nor do I claim to be. However, we have never had a problem obtaining credit when it was needed.

I would highly recommend that if you do need information that one would go to some qualified agency, not follow some links posted by someone who is always a week or months late in adding useless information to boards just to increase his post count.

I challanged him a bit on that thinking since it's prepaid how could it matter.

<font color="red"> he said they've found out statistically that the higher the credit scores, the more "responsible" the driver.

<font color="red">There is no independent study that bears this out,

Insurance and credit - They Hain't The Same Thing !!!

Nope they are anything but right. Credit reports and scoring weren't designed for accuracy they are for the purpose of milking the cash cow.

How can anything with a 70 % error factor be right?
