Will Paying The Court Judgment Remove The Black Mark From My Credit Rating?2015-05-19T21:46:54+10:00

No, paying the Judgment will not remove the bad Credit listing from your credit file.

Your listing will ONLY be updated to “Paid” to show that you paid the overdue amount, and ONLY if your creditor advises the credit reporting bureau.

Where Do I Start?2019-01-10T17:01:12+10:00

Here’s Three Simple Steps To Get Started With MyCRA Lawyers To A Clean Credit Rating:

Step 1.
Firstly we need a copy of your Equifax (Formerly Veda Advantage) and Illion (Formerly Dun and Bradstreet) credit reports (We can get them for you with either a simple form, or while you’re on the phone with us), so we can see exactly how many Bad Credit listings you may have, who listed them, and identify those you might be able to handle yourself if you wanted to.

You can either get your credit reports yourself through the Credit Reporting Bodies or call 1300 667 218 and we can arrange a copy for you.

Step 2.
Tell us everything you can remember about the listing and the events that led up to the Bad Credit listing. (It’s okay if you can’t remember much – the more you tell us the faster the process can be.)

Look around and send through any and all documents you might still have, including emails, statements, and letters from this creditor.

Step 3.
We’ll send you a few forms so we can take over the whole process (and all the stress) to make it very easy for you.

From there, the negotiations and investigations begin and we work on your behalf to remove the black marks from your credit files as quickly as possible.

Will Paying The Default Amount Remove The Black Mark From My Credit Rating?2015-05-19T22:07:35+10:00

No, paying the debt will not remove the bad credit listing from your credit file.

Your listing will ONLY be updated to “Paid” to show that you paid the overdue amount.

If you have a Serious Credit Infringement (7 years), this listing will be downgraded to a default when paid.

This then reduces the time listed to just 5 years from the original date the listing was reported.

Your Bad Credit Default Listing can ONLY be removed when MyCRA Lawyers audits your creditor and proves they did NOT afford you your consumer rights – making the default listing UNLAWFUL(Historically, MyCRA Lawyers have removed up-to 91.7% [more than 9 in 10] defaults we’ve worked on)

What Exactly Can MyCRA Lawyers Do For Me?2017-09-05T05:25:48+10:00

What Is A Credit File?2017-09-05T05:25:48+10:00

Credit files (also known as credit ratings or credit reports) are created for every person18 years and over who has been credit active, or that has now or has had, an open credit account or loan.

Your credit report can indicate the potential success or failure of future loan, credit card and mortgage applications.

Basically a credit file or credit rating records information for the past 5 – 7 years such as repayment history, the size of debt and the forms of credit applied for.

From a consumer perspective, your credit report is possibly the most important part of your financial life when it comes to getting approved for loans or almost any other form of credit.

Your credit file is the single most important part of your mortgage application, as it is used to provide evidence of your credit history and how you manage your debt and repayments.

If you have Bad Credit on your credit rating, and if you were lucky enough to find a home loan lender to help you, you could pay as much as $17,000 in extra interest Every Year because of the bad credit.

When MyCRA Lawyers fixes your credit, you might save $17,000 or more a year in interest charges.  Call MyCRA Lawyers Today!

Is There Anything MyCRA Lawyers Will NOT Work On?2015-05-19T22:24:09+10:00

  • Bankruptcy,

  • Part X, or
  • Section 73 of the Bankruptcy Act or
  • judgments listed by the Australian Taxation Office.

What Is A Default?2015-05-19T22:25:05+10:00

A default may be listed on your credit file when you fail to meet your repayment obligations under your credit contract.

A default will stay on your credit file for up to 5 years, but if you have a serious credit infringement, this may stay listed for up to 7 years.

What Is A Judgment?2017-09-05T05:25:48+10:00

A Judgment relates to court proceedings filed against you and the subsequent order made by a court that you owe a debt.

The order becomes public record and the credit reporting bureaus upload the data directly from the courts onto their credit reporting  databases.

You may also have other public record listings on your credit files including court actions and court writs.

Judgments and court actions stay listed on your report for 5 years while court writs are listed for 4 years.

What Is A ClearOut?2015-05-19T22:33:16+10:00

A Clear Out is also known as a Serious Credit Infringement and will remain on your credit rating for 7 years.

See Serious Credit Infringement for further details.

What Is The Difference Between A Default And An Overdue Account On Your Credit Rating?2017-04-29T13:06:14+10:00

About the only real difference is the name.

On an Equifax (Formerly Veda Advantage) credit file ordered directly by a consumer, you might see the heading “Overdue Account(s)” but the same listing from a business subscriber, you might see it called a “Default”.

Otherwise, you could say it is an overdue account for at least 60 days before it can be listed as a default.

Legislation in Queensland2015-12-31T01:48:15+10:00

Laws are the formal rules that regulate our behaviour. The law in Queensland is made by or under the authority of our Parliament or the Parliament of the Commonwealth (statute law) and by the courts (common law).

Queensland’s principal law-making body is the Parliament of Queensland. The Parliament comprises the Queen (whose representative in Queensland is the Governor) and the Legislative Assembly which consists of our elected Members of the Parliament.

Unlike other Australian States, Queensland has a unicameral (or single chamber) Parliament. Other States have both a Lower House and an Upper House. Queensland’s Upper House, called the Legislative Council, and was abolished in 1922.

The Members of the Legislative Assembly propose laws (in the form of a Bill for an Act) for consideration by the Parliament. If agreed to, those Bills become Acts and form part of Queensland’s law. The Parliament also delegates aspects of its law-making function to other entities, particularly the Governor in Council. Laws made under this delegated power are called statutory instruments. The form of statutory instrument most widely recognised is the regulation, but there are many other forms of statutory instruments.

More information on this topic and links to current legislation can be found online at https://www.legislation.qld.gov.au/Leg_Info/flp.htm

What are ‘Bills’2015-08-24T13:59:46+10:00

Bills are proposed laws introduced into the Legislative Assembly. If agreed to by the Parliament, they become Acts. In Queensland all Government Bills are drafted by the Office of the Queensland Parliamentary Counsel (OQPC) on receipt of a specific Cabinet authority which justifies the need for legislation. This is an important step in the process as not everything the Government seeks to achieve needs to be implemented by legislation.

Most Bills are Government Bills and are introduced into Parliament by the Minister whose responsibilities cover the Bill’s subject matter. However, OQPC also drafts Bills for private members at their request. These are called private members’ Bills.

What is the Record of Proceedings2017-09-05T05:25:48+10:00

The Record of Proceedings—commonly referred to as Hansard—is the official record of the Legislative Assembly. Among other things, it includes details of the:

  • sponsoring Minister’s or member’s explanatory speech when introducing a Bill
  • debate about a Bill
  • stage of progression a Bill has reached in the Legislative Assembly
  • text of all amendments to a Bill and whether they were agreed to
  • date of assent of a Bill.

Hansard is published daily on Parliament’s website www.parliament.qld.gov.au when Parliament is sitting

What is an ‘Act’2017-09-05T05:25:47+10:00

A Bill that has been passed by the Legislative Assembly and presented to the Governor for royal assent becomes an Act on receiving that assent.

At that point, the Act becomes a law of the State but whether or not its provisions start to operate depends on whether they have ‘commenced’.

Acts are sometimes called primary or principal legislation.

Each Act of the Queensland Parliament can be uniquely identified by its short title and number

What is ‘subordinate legislation’2015-08-24T14:04:25+10:00

Subordinate legislation (sometimes called ‘delegated’ legislation) is a category of statutory instrument made by an entity acting under the authority of an Act.

Subordinate legislation includes:

  • regulations (the majority of instruments of subordinate legislation are regulations)
  • proclamations (these instruments are mainly used to fix the commencement of provisions of an Act)
  • rules (the most common examples are the rules of court)
  • standards
  • notices
  • orders
  • by-laws.

With the exception of a special category of subordinate legislation (called exempt subordinate legislation)
