Credit Repair Companies
Does anyone have experience with credit repair companies? Any recommendations and/or advise? I heard good things about Clean Slate Credit Repair and Reliant Credit Repair. Any and all input would be greatly appreciated!

I agree with @Fred Engh. I fixed my brother's credit using a secured credit card. It only took 3 months to go from a 550 average to 639 (lowest) - 701 (highest), depending on the bureau. It's really easy to do. Dispute any errors on your credit report. Additionally, you may be surprised about what they remove. Transunion and equifax removed all negative reports by just giving a solid explanation. Experian tends to be the hardest, but lenders only look at the middle score [this was a huge lesson for me]. Then build up a good history of payment pay-down. Go get em and save your money!
