Bank Loan

When you really understand what it means to have a good credit rating, the next thing you need to do is to determine what your credit score actually is. Surprisingly, not many people know if they have a good credit rating or if they have a bad credit rating. To know about your credit score, you can simply request from one of the three credit reporting agencies. They will be able to provide you with a credit report including a numerical indicator of how much your credit rating rates and how much of a credit risk you are. To eliminate credit card debt, you need planning. This starts with analysis of current situation in terms of your debt and your finances, current and as expected in near future. So to eliminate credit card debt, you need to first check the amount you owe on various credit cards. Just use a notebook to note down the amount you owe on each credit card and the corresponding APR associated with them. Once you have this information handy, you can total up the various amounts to get the total amount of your credit card debt. After all, you can't eliminate credit card debt if you don't know how much it is actually. First start paying off the credit card which has the highest APR and which is costing you the most. Then eliminate the credit card which has the next highest APR and so on and so forth.
