Paying credit card bills 10 days before they are due is a useful tip. My credit card bill is due on the 28th of every month. Once, I forgot to pay the bill - this was very early in my financial journey. My credit score tanked from 750+ to barely above 700. Lesson learnt the hard way. Will implement this tip to stop any such mistakes in the future!
My dad's cibil score is down only because he took loan from CITI BANK, which is now merged with KOTAK MAHINDRA BANK. Now, every time they (KOTAK BANK PEOPLE) call to repay the loan. He tells them he already paid it then why your bank people calling repeatedly. 😤 Its been 10+ years he payed the loan with interest. He have documents to prove that he already had paid the loan. It not only happened with him, but with multiple people.
@@molivia. Do one thing, lodge a formal complaint with Kotak bank via email to mark the loan closed from their end. If they fail to do so in one month, you can launch complaint in RBI ombudsman
Folks please make a video on how to close the cards and when to close the cards, the order in which the cards should be closed for someone for example who has 10 cards and wants to close the extra cards please. As even the closure would have impact I assume!!
I had 4 cards in the past and I closed all of them within 6 months & now after 1 year my score is 820ish. So, what I did was Find out which card had the highest interest rate and I decided to pay it off first but suppose the amount of all cards are more than your monthly salary and your whole income is going towards replayment what you can do it take a personal loan of the combined amount for all (eg: you have to pay 2lakh for your credit cards) the interest rate for that might be around 15-16% (Take it from banks only not apps they charge very high amounts). Pay off the credit cards and close them on the spot closing highest interest rate one first. Keep 1 card with lower limit open. That way you will be able to close the cards and get out of debt cycle. You will have more free money with which you could prepay your loan faster. And yes, you will see temporarily drop in your cibil score.
Checklist : How to improve your credit score? Here are a few key tips to keep in mind for improving your credit score: Open credit A/cs only when necessary Diversify credit types over time Make timely payments and do not default Keep credit card balances low & CUR less than 30% Check credit reports often to spot errors
It's awesome information. Much needed for this era where everyone is loaded with leverage. And this video is much informative so that 70% of problems can be solved by them. Wow awesome
If someone doesn't have credit card and never took any loan then what will be their credit score? Also is there way have a good credit score without using credit card?
Amazing video, Got to learn a lot ❤ I had a doubt regarding the credit card debt cycle: When an old credit card is shut down (with lots of transactions) in order to get the new credit card with better benefits, the algorithm reduces the credit score temporarily. How is it rewarding you for new debt?
Hey Abhishek and Team of Zero1, your videos on Personal Finance are eye openers...could you also teach something like Technical and Fundamental Analysis of Stocks...it would be very helpful. Thank you ❤

How can I resolve or remove a credit score impact caused by fraud? The incident occurred four years ago, and I have already sent numerous emails and filed a police complaint regarding the matter. However, the issue is still reflected as pending on my CIBIL report. Why is this happening?
Sir my credit score is already low (600) as I missed some EMI's, Now I have cleared all dues and don't have any loans now. How can I increase the score now?? Please answer 🙏🙏
I have a habit of preparing the credit card debts, like right after I use it I send the amount to credit card. So I never kept track of bill date or last payment date. What impact does this have in my credit score?
I am not sure, you are correct on 30 % CUR of all limit combined... I have 5 credit card of 5 lakhs each and i just 4 lakhs on 1 credit card.... And cibil tanked 20 points... so I think cur 30 % per card limit is ideal way.
I am facing an issue like in my credit report there is showing multiple credit cards which are not taken by me with high utilisation which is leading to a decrease in my credit score. I spoke to my bank regarding this they are saying I don't have such credit cards with my account.What to do in this case?

I have two cc, for past one year my credit utilisation was maybe 15-20% and never had hard credit check, and my experian dropped from 890 to 780 in just one cycle, can i know the reason
Credit Utilisation is total of all credit cards or each card, I have 6 cards & total available limit is some 20 L, Should I consider 30% of 20L or just each card ka 30 %

What does diversifying credit type mean? What other credit types are available for short term with zero interest(when paid on due date) apart from credit cards?
Diversifying credit types means using different kinds of credit, like loans and credit cards, to improve your credit score. The idea is not to take excess of unsecured loans. Besides credit cards, you can consider options like store financing or "buy now, pay later" services, which offer zero interest if you pay the full amount by the due date.
@@Zero1byZerodha Thanks for the reply. Currently or in the foreseeable future, I do not require any loans so asked the question. Somehow in India store financing is linked to credit cards or very few offers it and difficult to find it. BNPL, I will explore it.
I have a doubt, there are these spend limits in icici bank and I guess other banks offer too. Anyways, if my offered limit is 7lacs and I took that but I kept the spending limit at 20%. Now if I use the entire 20% of it. It will show that available credit limit is 0. This shouldn't effect the credit score, right? I think the spend limit is exactly for this purpose but I want to confirm. As it kinda makes me anxious when I see thar it mentions my available credit is too low
Yes it will not affect it...that is the reason why the spend limit is there in the first place to keep yourself in check. You can increase it to 30% if you really need it but 20% is actually really good.
"I have a loan that I am repaying regularly, but the bank hasn't updated this information with the credit bureau. Is there an email address where I can contact the bureaus to request a correction to my credit score?"
