1. Choose a class bank
What I mean is the second-class bank, sorry I can not mention the names of his bank, but the point is not the bank of a row of top banks such as Bank BCA, Mandiri, BNI and BRI. Bank board is mostly very selective in accepting prospective credit card customers. Why? Because of their large bank, which is obviously not looking for quantity but the quality of customer clients is minimal risk of bad credit is sought. Another example, foreign banks have also included a strong selection of candidates in accepting clients. So, so easy to take care of credit card applications, for the first stage of taking care of credit card banks try to avoid it if you want to quickly diapprove.

2. Choose the same bank where you are saving money in the bank
If you are a person who is not a permanent employee, not a civil servant / Armed Forces, or are not professional executives, banks are very strict in giving approval to you. Why is that? Because no party or corporate guarantee to you that most of the bank rejected your application. There's no such matter a great freelance income to thousands of dollars per month even though it still exceeds the employee will be denied. Do not believe it? I have friends who do business online income is far greater than my salary as chief engineer. Until now my friend is still having trouble taking care of credit cards.

Indicate if you are the customer's bank where you are saving money. The bank usually will consider mengapprove credit card application if the applicant is the customers themselves. Moreover you have a customer account or a large deposit there. Remember my previous article in this paper.

3. Try to finance cash flow in your account during the last three months and then the balance of the traffic-
Which is disconnected with troubleshooting tips number two. If you are freelance workers, or businessmen (entrepreneurs), generally the bank will ask for the last three months bank statement containing your financial data. So, when you want to try to take care of credit card traffic (cash flow) of your finances. At least in the last three months. Banks usually will look to see your financial capacity into consideration.

4. Find a reference of the credit card holder (card holder)

5. Apply credit card offers in the mall

Not all credit card applications rejected requests for financial reasons. Not infrequently the rejection due to domicile bank also be a material consideration. Banks usually reject the request if the application's home address (KTP) prospective credit card applicants are from out of town.

Survey request an application (card) credit, the bank will check by phone first to address in its application data.

FICO's 5 factors: The components of a FICO credit score

0 komentar

In the land of credit scores, FICO is king. The bulk of banks in the United States use FICO scores to decide whether to offer credit to potential borrowers and at what interest rate. FICO has a major global presence, as well: According to the company'stestimonybefore a House Financial Services subcommittee, FICO scores are used in about 10 billion decisions worldwide each year.

While the inner workings of the FICO scoring system are a closely guarded secret, the company is open about the generalcomponents of a FICO credit score. Using the informfation in a borrofwer's credit report, FICO breaks that information into categories. Those five components each get different weights. "FICO scores give the most attention to how you have paid back lenders in the past and how much you are using of the credit available to you, as shown on your credit report. Those two factors contribute roughly two-thirds of a typical person's FICO score," says FICO spokesman Craig Watts. So how does FICO come up with its widely used score?

Here's a breakdown of the five elements of the FICO score:

1. Payment history: 35 percent of the total credit score is based on a borrower's payment history, making the repayment of past debt the most important factor in calculating credit scores. According to FICO, past long-term behavior is used to forecast future long-term behavior.

FICO keeps an eye on both revolving loans -- such as credit cards -- and installment loans, such as mortgages or student loans. Although the weight of each loan varies between individuals, FICO indicates that defaulting on a larger installment loan like a mortgage will damage a credit score more severely than defaulting on a smaller revolving loan. One of the best ways for borrowers to improve their credit score as a whole is by making consistent, timely payments.

2. Debt amounts: 30 percent of the total credit score is based on a borrower's total outstanding debt. Revolving lines of credit, which allow a consumer to borrow as much or as little as desired up to a limit (versus installment loans where a set amount -- say, $20,000 plus interest for a car -- is determined at the outset), are more heavily weighted. Credit cards are a type of revolving account.

Since FICO views borrowers who habitually max out credit cards -- or who get very close to their credit limits -- as people who cannot handle debt responsibly, a borrower should maintain low credit card balances. Experts recommend that the amount owed should not exceed 30 percent of the individual's credit limits. That 30 percent rule of thumb applies to each individual credit card as well as the overall level of debt.

The final components of a FICO credit score get less weight in the score's calculation. "The remaining one-third of your score is determined by how long you have managed credit, to what degree you have pursued new credit recently and the variety of credit types you have successfully handled," Watts says.

3. Length of credit history: 15 percent of the total credit score is based on the length of time each account has been open and the length of time since the account's most recent action.

As a result, it is impossible for a person who is new to credit to have a perfect credit score. A longer credit history provides more information and offers a better picture of long-term financial behavior. Therefore, to improve their credit scores, individuals without a history should begin using credit, and those with credit should maintain longstanding accounts.

4 and 5. New credit and credit mix: Each comprise 10 percent of the total credit score.

Borrowers, even those new to credit, should avoid opening too many credit lines at the same time, since such behavior could suggest they are in financial trouble and need significant access to lots of credit. FICO suggests that borrowers only take on additional credit when they must have it or when it makes sense financially.

Credit mix, meanwhile, is somewhat of a vague category, but experts say that repaying a variety of debt indicates the borrower can handle all sorts of credit. According to FICO, historical data indicates that borrowers with a good mix of revolving credit and installment loans generally represent less risk for lenders.

Knowing the various weights given to components of a FICO credit score give borrowers a better idea where to focus their attention. "So to get a good score you mostly need a credit history with no reported late payments, as well as low reported balances currently on any credit cards," Watts says.
