Updated Credit Report Tradelines
If you don’t know what a tradeline is, it is essentially an account that you find on your credit report. This can be any account on your credit report, regardless of the positive or negative impact it has on your score. The collection of tradelines account for your credit report. Tradelines are also what major credit bureaus use as your information.
So where does the term “updated” come from?
An updated tradeline is as simple as that, “an updated credit report account”.
The next question you might have is why you are receiving updated tradeline notices? The reason is because you are subscribed to a monitoring service for your credit that is sending you information on your account. The reasons for receiving these sorts of notices are far and wide. You may have new accounts, updated payments, positive or negative balances, and more.
So What’s The Deal With This Credit Enhancement?
The idea of a tradeline is simply a term that is an umbrella for credit enhancement. Thanks to the Equal Opportunity
Act of 1974, as well as Regulation B from the Federal Reserve Board, you can add an authorized user to a line of credit that is pre-existing. This line of credit can be anything from a tradeline to a credit card.
If that line of credit is in good standing, it can be extremely beneficial for a person’s credit score. Let’s say you were added to an account with ten years of positive credit history with a high limit and low balance. Your credit score would more than likely see the positive effects. The beauty is, you can do it at this moment if you want! It’s easier than every to pay for an account so that it hits your credit report.
