Re: Starting the journey to rebuild my credit from horrid credit

The Servicer of your loans should be able to help you with what your payments might be. Please stay on top of your loans, I ruined my credit from defaulted school loans and not investigating my options at the time and truly regret it :-( feel like I'm going to be haunted forever!

I think I'd wait a few months to GW your car loan holder until you get some consistent payment history.
