CASE STUDY
A recent client had a credit card default on his credit file. Because of this, he could only get a loan with a 2.5% higher interest rate. The extra interest cost due to this default was $36,837 per year.
PROBLEM
He had a business and he had a lease for an Audi.
The business got into trouble and he could not make the car payments and the finance company repossessed the Audi then sold it.
The finance company contacted him 3 months after repossession to advise there was a $16000 deficiency and asked Steve to pay.
The business was closed down shortly after and Steve lost everything.
Steve had no idea that there was any damage to his credit file until he applied for finance and was rejected. He was also told by his finance broker that his wife was listed as well.
Steve’s broker suggested he speak to Repair My Credit Now because he was struggling to get finance approved.
DISPUTE
Steve felt he had been upfront and cooperative with the finance company.
He had not been warned that there was any chance of a default.
He had attempted to negotiate payment with the finance company but they expected him to pay more than he could afford.

SOLUTION
Repair My Credit Now started negotiations with the finance company on Steve and his wife’s behalf.
The finance company resisted and would not provide enough information to allow a full assessment of the case.
Repair My Credit Now assisted Steve to put a complaint to the ombudsman.
Once all of the documentation had been supplied negotiations resumed.
Repair My Credit Now ran into further hold ups so put together another complaint to the ombudsman on Steve’s behalf.
We found that the finance company had not followed the rules and had placed the black mark on his file a lot earlier than they should have and had not followed the correct processes before placing the black mark on his wife’s file.
