If you’re considering taking out a car loan, you may be wondering how it will affect your credit score. The short answer is: it depends. A car loan can help improve your credit score if you make your payments on time and keep your balances low. However, if you miss payments or default on the loan, it can damage your credit score.

To find out if your car loan is on your credit report, you’ll need to obtain a copy of your credit report from one of the three major credit reporting agencies: Experian, Equifax, or TransUnion. Once you have your report, you’ll need to look through it carefully to see if any car loans are listed. If you don’t see any car loans, it’s possible that your loan isn’t being reported to the credit agencies. This could be because you’re behind on your payments, or it could be a mistake. If you’re not sure, you can contact your lender to confirm whether or not your car loan is being reported.

Once you know whether or not your car loan is being reported, you can take steps to improve your credit score. If your loan is being reported, make sure you make your payments on time and keep your balances low. If your loan isn’t being reported, you can try to negotiate with your lender to have the loan added to your credit report. You can also consider paying off the loan in full, which will help improve your credit score.

If you’re like most people, you probably don’t think about your credit report very often. But if you’re in the process of taking out a car loan, it’s important to check your credit report to make sure everything is accurate. Here’s how to do it:

First, get a copy of your credit report from one of the three major credit reporting agencies: Equifax, Experian or TransUnion. You’re entitled to one free report from each of them every year.

Next, look through your report carefully to see if there is any mention of your car loan. If you see the loan listed, that means it’s being reported to the credit agencies and is therefore part of your credit history.

If you don’t see the loan listed, that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s not on your credit report. It could just mean that the credit reporting agency hasn’t received the information yet. So if you’re in the process of taking out a car loan, make sure to ask the lender if they are reporting the loan to the credit agencies.

If you find out that your car loan is not being reported to the credit agencies, you can still try to get it added to your credit report. The best way to do this is to ask the lender to send a “goodwill adjustment” letter to the credit agency. In this letter, the lender will explain that the omission was an error and ask that the loan be added to your credit report.

There’s no guarantee that the credit agency will agree to add the loan to your report, but it’s worth a try. After all, the more information that’s on your credit report, the better.

Pippa Middleton is obviously a pear, but might she be the royal rotten
apple too? Her recent antics at a London nightclub and the highly
criticised cookery and party planning books might mean that that Kate
wants to distance herself from her bridesmaid sister.

After all the press have done their job perfectly – when we think of
Kate, we associate her with a demure smile, royalty, and understated
sexiness. Unfortunately when Pippa comes to mind, we think: sexy bottom,
freeloader, royal parasite and a bad writer.

Dancing, books and pistols at dawn

In early November the Sun reported that Pippa was out until 3am at the
exclusive nightclub Loulou’s where membership can cost up to £25,000 and
attracts the exclusive crowd like Kate Moss, Princess Beatrice and
Eugenie. Although dressed in a coat that even Kate would envy with sharp
red and cream lines, yet she left the stylish women’s sandals at home
and opted for somewhat sensible court shoes. However she left the club
with a mystery man rather than her new boyfriend, James Matthews, who is
the brother of Made in Chelsea star, Spencer.

Earlier this year, Pippa was also quizzed by the police as she was in a
car in Paris where the one of the drivers waved a pistol at a
photographer, although according to the Telegraph thought it was all a
‘bit of a joke’. Hmm, its doubtful that Kate and her new family thought
the same.

From sister to mother

Kate on the other hand is preparing to become a mother. We all know that
motherhood is special, but imagine incubating the royal heir! The
pressure must be insurmountable. Ask any woman preparing for the birth
of their first child, it’s a big thing. Huge in fact, the pressure to do
it ‘right’ is massive. It’s already been reported that she wants to use
Hypnobirthing and birth the royal baby the natural way – bit like Diana
there then!

So, while Kate is preparing to become a royal mother (and hopefully not a
baby bore), surrounding herself with baby books and advice from women
who’ve gone through it before, what’s Pippa up to? Yep, partying,
drinking and flying to Holland to try and secure rights for her recent
book – Party Planning. After its flop in the UK, it’s only hope of
paying back that £400,000 upfront payment is via foreign rights.

Sisters forever

But as one sister enters motherhood and the other tries to recoup her
book advance or dances on the floors of London’s most exclusive clubs,
will they really grow apart? Sisterhood is a strong bond. After all when
they lead such public lives, who else can they really share their most
private thoughts with? With the press determined to keep both these
sisters in the headlines, vilifying or praising their everyday choices,
they need each other more than ever.
