Buying a higher credit score with seasoned trade-lines

Can you buy a higher credit score by purchasing seasoned trade-lines? This questions
seems to come up more and more these days. The answer to this is a bit complicated,
so let me see if I can give a simple easy to understand answer.

Purchasing a seasoned trade-line is the process of paying a monthly fee for having
your name added as an authorized user to a seasoned credit account for the purpose
of getting that seasoned account to report on your credit report. The goal of doing
this is to add a good trade-line to your credit that will boost your credit scores.

Pros of paying for and adding seasoned trade-lines:Over the past this practice has
been somewhat successful for those who already have good, clean credit, and just
need a small boost in their credit scores to obtain financing they are currently
seeking. You can add the trade-line(s), pay for them just long enough to get your
financing, then stop paying for them and let them fall off your reports. Although
this seems to be a simple and easy solution, there are some considerations that make
this not so great.

Cons of paying for and adding seasoned trade-lines: There are several problems with
using seasoned trade-lines that have now raised the brows of the credit bureaus as
well as federal officials. Although there is nothing illegal about adding another
person to your account, the biggest problem is in how these seasoned trade-lines are
being sold. As I mentioned above, they are only appropriate for someone with already
good clean credit, yet there are hundreds of companies on the Internet selling
trade-lines as a method of credit repair. Buying seasoned trade-line when you have
derogatory trade-lines on your credit will do little to nothing to boost your
credit. In fact, it is a ridiculous waste of your money. With the cost of these
trade-lines ranging from several hundred to several thousand per month per
trade-line, it is not an effective solution for 99% of those who seek them. The
other issue is that there are now changes underway by the credit bureaus to not
include authorized user accounts in the credit scoring model. This will completely
negate the effectiveness of seasoned trade-lines altogether.

The bottom line: For those seeking to improve their credit, there are far better,
less costly, and more effective ways to accomplish this. For some great tips, visit
