CONT

It's illegal for credit repairers to accept advance payment, security for payment or to charge a fee unless their services cause a material improvement to the consumer's credit file. For example, if an amount owed by one consumer appeared on the wrong person's credit file, a correction of that information achieved through the efforts of the credit repair company would be a material improvement.

CONT

Il est illégal pour un redresseur de crédit d’accepter un paiement anticipé, une garantie de paiement ou de percevoir des droits, à moins que ses services ne permettent une amélioration importante du dossier de crédit du consommateur. Par exemple, si un compte en souffrance dû par un consommateur figure dans le dossier de crédit de la mauvaise personne, toute rectification des renseignements due aux efforts déployés par l’agence de redressement de crédit constituerait une amélioration importante.
