Reporting 

In providing the MyCreditLift Services, MCL adheres to all FCRA any other applicable federal and state regulations when reporting payment or failure to make payments to the Credit Bureaus (as later defined). Users of the MyCreditLift Services acknowledge that their performance under their Lease (as later defined) may be reported to one or more of Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian (individually a “Credit Bureau”, together the “Credit Bureaus”), whether their performance is positive or negative. Users specifically acknowledge and agree that we may disclose any default under their rental payments, along with any other relevant information, to the Credit Bureaus. We will report payments or failure to make payments under your Lease to the Credit Bureaus, which in part is designed to assist parties in establishing a credit history and/or a credit score. Subject to FCRA and any other applicable federal or state laws, rules or regulations, the following restrictions apply to all users who have their payments or failure to make payments reported to a Credit Bureau: 

  • Once payments or failure to make payments have been reported to a Credit Bureau, the reporting of those payments cannot be modified, amended or canceled unless a valid dispute is submitted by the user. 

  • To be eligible for reporting to a Credit Bureau, MCL will need to verify the existence of a valid written rental lease agreement, including verifying that the user is listed as a lessee (“Lease”). Additionally, MCL requires verification of certain lease details with the landlord, i.e. the lease payment amounts due and due dates. If MCL is unable to verify any and all necessary information for reporting, MCL will not be able to report the user’s payments or failure to make payments to any Credit Bureau. 

  • Notwithstanding the above, any party may dispute any entry on a credit report provided by MCL to a Credit Bureau in accordance with the FCRA. 

  • MCL is not responsible for how a Credit Bureau may manage or use the information provided to them by MCL and you agree to hold MCL harmless against any such claims (all subject to the FCRA). For information regarding how each Credit Bureau collect, store, manage, use, modify, disseminate and distribute such information, please go to their respective websites or other sources of information they provide. Once the information is transmitted from MCL to a Credit Bureau, such Credit Bureau will obtain an ownership interest in that data. 

  • Not a Credit Repair Organization. MCL and its affiliates are not credit repair organizations and are not offering to sell, provide or perform any service to you for the express or implied purpose of either improving your credit record, credit history or credit rating or providing advice or assistance to you with regard to improving your credit record, credit history or credit rating, nor does MCL charge consumers a fee for advice on how to change, modify or improve their credit file or score. You acknowledge and agree that you are not seeking to purchase, use or access the Services in order to do so. Please note that accurate adverse information on your credit report cannot be changed. 

  • Potential Effect of Inconsistent or Termination of Credit Reporting.  Once payment by a user for a particular bill or account has been reported to a Credit Bureau, the cessation of the reporting such bill or account (or the inconsistent reporting of such payments) to such Credit Bureau may negatively impact a user’s credit history, including the subsequent reporting of such bill or account following a period of no reporting on such bill or account, which may occur for a variety of reasons, including cessation of use of the MCL services. MCL shall not be liable for any claims, charges, demands, damages or adverse impacts on a user’s credit score or credit history if a user ceases using the Services or has inconsistent reporting. 

Opt Outs; Continued Reporting 

In the event you are permitted, by the terms of your Program, to opt out of the Program more than 30 days after the first day of your lease, you acknowledge that your landlord may  continue reporting your payments or failure to make payments for the months remaining in your lease to us, in which event such information will be furnished to one or more Credit Bureaus.  In that event, your landlord and not MyCreditLift will determine whether or not you will be billed for the  Program during such period. 

Identity Authentication 

MCL obtains, verifies and sometimes stores personal information of its users. You authorize MCL, directly or through third parties, to make any inquires we consider necessary to verify your identity. This may include asking you for further information, requiring you to take steps to confirm ownership of your email address or a financial account and verifying your information against third party databases or through other sources. If we cannot verify your information to the extent we deem necessary, we may not be able to allow you to use the Services. You understand and agree that when using the Services you will provide, true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself and that you will maintain and update such information.
