How can I establish business credit separate from personal? |
I have my own business and it has been around for over 4 years. My business has excellent credit including 3 credit cards and multiple vendors that I buy equipment and hardware from. I am going through a debt consolidation/reduction plan right now and have charged off 3 credit cards and paid a reduced amount as a settlement so basically my personal credit isn't in great shape. Citibank recently cut my credit limit on a BUSINESS credit card from $15,000 down to $2000 stating that they reviewed my personal credit and based on their review they lowered the limit on my BUSINESS credit card. How is this possible for them to base my business credit on a personal credit review? I was in the middle of a business trip and was unable to pay for the rest of my meals and hotel because I only carry one credit card since it had a more than adequate limit. Needless to say it was a mess to scramble to find money to pay for food and expenses the last week of the trip. First thing is you need a DUNS number, which is a credit account for your business. When you set up an account with them you would be asked to list your vendors with which you have payment terms. The DUNS organization will then contact them to verify your information. Most likely you gave Citibank your SSN and they used it to check on your personal credit history as most credit card companies do. If you are the person responsible for paying your business expenses, then they can look at you and the business as one. Still, kind of a dirty trick to cut your limit so far without advance notification. Hi, I used "Credit Solution" to settle my debt .They managed to reduce my debt up to 58%.It's legitimate.I came accross this company on NBC News Special Edition.Check it out here: http://dn.vc/WmLK |
