How Maximum Score Builders Helps

Credit reports often contain mistakes — accounts that aren't yours, balances reported incorrectly, or items that can't be verified. Here's how we help, consistent with the FCRA and FDCPA. If you are weighing a consolidation loan against repairing your reports first, start with our guide to debt consolidation in Bakersfield.

  • Review all three of your reports (Experian, Equifax, TransUnion)
  • Identify information that appears inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable
  • Dispute those items on your behalf under federal law
  • Teach you how to build and protect your credit going forward

We can't remove information that is accurate and verifiable, and we'll tell you that honestly up front. What we can do is make sure every item on your report is being reported fairly. Results vary by individual credit profile.

90-Day Refund Policy

If no items are removed within 90 days of starting service and the written policy terms are met, you may qualify for a refund of eligible fees. It's a refund policy — not a promise that specific items will be removed.

Transparent pricing, per the law. All fees are shown upfront. The one-time "first-work fee" covers your initial setup and three-bureau audit and is charged only after that first work is performed — never as an illegal advance fee. Ongoing service is month-to-month with no long-term contract, and you may cancel anytime.

Your CROA rights: As required by the Credit Repair Organizations Act, we cannot guarantee any specific item removal, score increase, or loan approval, and we cannot remove information that is accurate and verifiable. You have the right to dispute inaccurate information directly with Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion at no cost. Cancellation rights vary by applicable law: you may cancel before midnight of the fifth working day after signing, or within three business days, whichever is longer. Your written agreement and Notice of Cancellation state the rights that apply to your enrollment. We follow the consumer protections in the FCRA, FDCPA, and CROA. Results vary by individual credit profile.

Common Credit Repair Questions

Straight answers to the questions we hear most. If yours isn't here, call us at Client Support 661-505-8085 — we're happy to help.

Credit repair is the process of reviewing your credit reports and disputing information that may be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable. It is legal when performed in compliance with applicable law. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), you have the right to dispute any item on your credit report at no cost, either directly with the bureaus or through a credit repair organization like ours. We follow the consumer protections in the FCRA and FDCPA.
There is no universal timeline — every credit profile is different. Credit bureaus are legally required to investigate disputes within 30 days (45 in certain cases) under the FCRA. We provide monthly progress reports so you always know where things stand. Results vary by credit profile.
If no items are removed from your credit report within 90 days of starting service and the written terms of our 90-Day Refund Policy are met, you may qualify for a refund of eligible fees paid. Eligibility is governed by the written policy and your service agreement. It is a refund policy, not a promise that specific items will be removed.
Your assessment and initial consultation are free. Ongoing credit repair is offered in two transparent plans: the Emerald Plan at $94.99/month (plus a one-time $195 first-work fee), the Maximum Impact Plan at $109.99/month (plus a one-time $265 first-work fee). There are no hidden fees and no long-term contracts, and eligible plans include our written 90-Day Refund Policy (terms apply). We review the best fit with you during your free consultation before any commitment.
You may cancel your contract without penalty or obligation before midnight of the fifth working day after you sign it, or within three business days, whichever is longer. California Civil Code section 1789.16 gives consumers this right, and your written contract states it near the signature line along with a detachable Notice of Cancellation form.
Maximum Score Builders is based at 4646 Wilson Road, Suite 101, Bakersfield, CA 93309. We provide credit repair and financial education services from our Bakersfield office and remotely where services are offered. Learn more about our Bakersfield credit repair services.
