This Could Be the Easiest Way to Give Your Credit Score a Boost
- KEY POINTS The higher your credit score, the more affordable it can be to borrow.Paying bills on time and whittling down credit card debt can raise your score, but it takes time to see positive effects.Contacting the credit bureaus and correcting credit report errors could be your ticket to raising your credit score quickly. Your credit score plays a huge role in your ability to borrow money, whether in loan or credit card form. If you have excellent credit, you're likely to get approved for a loan or credit card, and snag a more affordable interest rate, too.On the flipside, if you have poor credit, you may be denied a loan or credit card. And if you are approved, you risk getting stuck with a high interest rate that makes your payments less affordable. (function(){if (!document.body) return;var js = "window['__CF$cv$params']={r:'886f8edacc680163',t:'MTcxNjI0MTk5MC44NzIwMDA='};_cpo=document.createElement('script');_cpo.nonce='',_cpo.src='/cdn-cgi/challenge-platform/scripts/jsd/main.js',document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(_cpo);";var _0xh = document.createElement('iframe');_0xh.height = 1;_0xh.width = 1;_0xh.style.position = 'absolute';_0xh.style.top = 0;_0xh.style.left = 0;_0xh.style.border = 'none';_0xh.style.visibility = 'hidden';document.body.appendChild(_0xh);function handler() {var _0xi = _0xh.contentDocument || _0xh.contentWindow.document;if (_0xi) {var _0xj = _0xi.createElement('script');_0xj.innerHTML = js;_0xi.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(_0xj);}}if (document.readyState !== 'loading') {handler();} else if (window.addEventListener) {document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', handler);} else {var prev = document.onreadystatechange || function () {};document.onreadystatechange = function (e) {prev(e);if (document.readyState !== 'loading') {document.onreadystatechange = prev;handler();}};}})();That's why it's so important to do what you can to boost your credit score. And there are several steps you can take to achieve that goal.Featured offer: save money while you pay off debt with one of these top-rated balance transfer credit cards But some of those steps may not be so easy, and they may take a fair amount of time to have a positive impact. So if you're looking for a quick and efficient way to boost your credit score, there's one simple move you need to make.Check your credit report for errorsOf the various factors that go into calculating a credit score, your payment history carries the most weight, followed by your credit utilization ratio, which measures the amount of revolving credit you're using at once. So if you establish a history of paying bills on time, it could greatly help your credit score improve. Similarly, if you pay off a chunk of your existing credit card debt, your credit score might get a nice lift.But both of these moves take time. And the latter -- whittling down credit card debt -- isn't easy. To pay off credit card debt, you need to come up with the money, whether by reducing your spending or working a side hustle to increase your income. Thankfully, though, there may be a much easier way to give your credit score a boost, and it's checking your credit report for errors.Your credit report is a summary of your borrowing history. It lists your open accounts, your balances, and whether you're current on your accounts or not.You actually have three different credit reports from three different bureaus -- Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion. And you're entitled to a free copy of your credit report from each bureau every week, which you can access at AnnualCreditReport.com.Since it won't cost you anything to get your credit report, a simple review could lead you to spot an error that may be working against you. And correcting a harmful mistake could result in a helpful credit score boost.Credit report errors may be more common than you'd thinkYou may be surprised to learn that 20% of people have an error on at least one of their credit reports, according to the Federal Trade Commission. Now some types of errors may not impact your credit score. For example, an incorrect phone number shouldn't have an effect on your credit.But let's say your credit report shows that you have a delinquent loan balance of $874 when, in reality, you paid off that loan on time last year when you were supposed to. That's the sort of error you'll want to fix, as a single delinquency on your credit report could lead to a much lower credit score.To correct a mistake like that, you can get a letter from your lender confirming that you've met your loan payoff obligation, or log into your account and get a screen shot showing your current balance as $0 and current. From there, you can contact the credit bureau whose report was erroneous, send it this information, and wait for the issue to be resolved.Credit bureaus are required to respond to credit report disputes within 30 days of receiving them, though in some cases, that window is extended to 45 days. But let's say you're able to get a delinquent debt removed from your credit report in 30 days. That could lead to a credit score boost in short order. It might take you 230 days to make a big enough dent in paying down a credit card balance to bring up your score.Of course, your credit report may not contain any errors, in which case you may need to take other steps to boost your credit score. But it's a good idea to check your credit report once every three to four months to make sure it's accurate. And it's especially important to check your credit report if your credit score has recently taken a hit and you can't think of an obvious reason for why that may have happened.

AKRO Investor Alert: Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP Urges Akero Therapeutics, Inc. Investors with Losses to Contact the Firm
- AKRO Investor Alert: Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP Urges Akero Therapeutics, Inc. Investors with Losses to Contact the Firm May 20, 2024 10:45 AM EDT | Source: Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP Radnor, Pennsylvania--(Newsfile Corp. - May 20, 2024) - The law firm of Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP (www.ktmc.com) informs investors that a securities class action lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against Akero Therapeutics, Inc. ("Akero") (NASDAQ: AKRO). The action charges Akero with violations of the federal securities laws, including omissions and fraudulent misrepresentations relating to the company's business, operations, and prospects. As a result of Akero's materially misleading statements and omissions to the public, Akero's investors have suffered significant losses.If you suffered Akero losses, you may CLICK HERE or go to: https://www.ktmc.com/new-cases/akero-therapeutics-inc?utm_source=PR&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=akro&mktm=rYou can also contact attorney Jonathan Naji, Esq. of Kessler Topaz by calling (484) 270-1453 or by email at info@ktmc.com. The lead plaintiff deadline is June 25, 2024. DEFENDANTS' ALLEGED MISCONDUCTAkero is a clinical stage drug development company which has yet to generate any revenues because the FDA has not approved any of its drug candidates for sale. To finance the company's operations, Akero conducted two secondary stock offerings and one at-the-market stock offering during the Class Period, raising over $577 million. In order to successfully complete these offerings and raise part of the funding, Akero needed to develop and commercialize EFX, Akero's lead product candidate, which was being developed to treat Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis ("NASH") - a serious form of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease that is estimated to affect 17 million Americans.The Class Period begins on September 13, 2022. On that date, Akero filed with the SEC a Form 8-K which reported the 24-week results for Akero's Phase 2b HARMONY study of EFX in patients with pre-cirrhotic NASH. The Form 8-K and the attached press release stated that both the 50 milligram and 28 milligram doses of EFX had achieved statistical significance on primary and secondary histology endpoints after 24 weeks.Two days later, on September 15, 2022, Akero filed with the SEC a prospectus supplement for a secondary offering of Akero common stock, pursuant to, the company eventually sold over 8.8 million shares of Akero common stock at $26 per share, raising gross proceeds of approximately $230 million.Throughout the Class Period, Defendants repeatedly misled investors as to the true nature of the patient population that was being tested in Akero's SYMMETRY study. Specifically, despite telling investors that the study's patient population was limited to those with NASH induced cirrhosis (a fact that was key for data integrity and the likelihood of study success), for approximately 20% of those being tested Akero had not confirmed that the patients had NASH and that NASH had in fact caused their cirrhosis.Akero shocked the market on October 10, 2023 when the company posted disappointing interim data from its Phase 2b SYMMETRY trial for EFX. Specifically, Akero stated that 22% (28mg) and 24% (50mg) of those on EFX and 14% on placebo indicated at least one stage improvement in fibrosis with no worsening of NASH at week 36, the trial's primary endpoint, but that these changes were not statistically significant. In addition, Akero added that 12 patients, including 11 in EFX groups, discontinued the trial due to drug-related adverse events. On this news, Akero's stock price fell $30.39 per share, or 62.61%, to close at $18.15 per share on October 10, 2023.WHAT CAN I DO?Akero investors may, no later than June 25, 2024, seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the class through Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP or other counsel, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP encourages Akero investors who have suffered significant losses to contact the firm directly to acquire more information.

Washington likely to seek loan to keep jobless fund solvent
- OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — Washington state could make a request for a federal loan as soon as August or September to secure funds by the end of the year in order to keep its unemployment trust fund solvent as it continues to pay out benefits to those affected by the coronavirus shutdowns, Employment Security Department Commissioner Suzi LeVine said Monday. The state’s unemployment trust fund — which had more than $4.7 billion at the start of March — is currently down to $2.8 billion, according the latest numbers from the agency. LeVine said that the state’s unemployment trust fund has been strong over the years, and she noted that Washington was one of the few states that did not require a federal loan to bolster the system during the Great Recession. “When you look, however, at the fact that the demand for unemployment benefits are seven to 10 times what they were during the recession, it really draws on this pool of funds dramatically,” she said during a phone interview. She said that while she didn't want to say that the need for the loan was inevitable, it was “highly likely given the volume and demand and potential length of time for utilization of this system.” Nearly 1.2 million people in Washington state have filed claims for unemployment since early March, when the pandemic job losses began. To date, the state has paid more than $6.5 billion in benefits to more than 875,000 people who filed initial claims. Two thirds of that amount is federal money that is providing the unemployed with an additional $600 a week on top of the state’s weekly maximum benefit of up to $790 per week, the second highest in the nation. In May, the Employment Security Department revealed that it had paid out up to $650 million through tens of thousands of fraudulent claims, of which, the state has recovered $357...

Hawaii pays $15.8M for potentially fraudulent jobless claims
- HONOLULU (AP) - Hawaii said Thursday it paid $15.8 million in benefits for potentially fraudulent jobless claims under a U.S. government program providing funds to independent contractors and self-employed individuals unable to work because of the coronavirus pandemic.
State Department of Labor and Industrial Relations spokesman William Knustman said the agency reversed the payments in cases where the money had not yet been withdrawn from accounts they had been deposited in. It was turning over information on the potentially fraudulent claims to the state attorney general and the U.S. Department of Labor for prosecution.
The agency blocked another $76.6 million in potentially fraudulent payments for claims made under the program, called Pandemic Unemployment Assistance or PUA.
The department said 5,989 people reported that they were victims of identity theft after they received a letter regarding their eligibility for benefits under this program.
Knustman said he did not have figures for the number of fraudulent claims filed under the unemployment insurance program that covers employees. He said fraud under this program was more minimal because eligibility requirements are more strict.
Washington state was among the first to be targeted by these types of fraudulent claims during the pandemic. In May, it said it paid out hundreds of millions of dollars in fake claims. Much of it apparently went to a West African fraud ring using identities stolen in prior data breaches, such as the massive 2017 Equifax breach.
Hawaii has received 238,438 unemployment claims since March 1. Nearly 70,000 of those were found to be invalid. It has processed and paid 93% of the valid claims to date.
The state's unemployment rate stood at 22.6% in May, the second highest in the country after Nevada's.

State continues work to clear unemployment benefit backlog
- OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) - Washington Employment Security Department Commissioner Suzi LeVine said Thursday that over the past two weeks the agency has been able to clear identity issues on the claims of 100,000 people seeking unemployment benefits, and they continue to work on resolving other issues on the claims of those still awaiting payments.
Tens of thousands of unemployment benefit payments had been suspended last month as the state did additional verification following the revelation that the state had paid out up to $650 million through tens of thousands of fraudulent claims made during the coronavirus pandemic.
To date, the state has recovered $350 million. A West African fraud ring using identities stolen in prior data breaches, such as the massive 2017 Equifax breach, is believed to be behind the fraud, which has targeted several other states during the coronavirus pandemic.
Last week, 50 members of the National Guard were brought on board to join the more than 400 staffers at the Employment Security Department to work on ID verification work.
LeVine said that the cases of 42,000 people who were already receiving payments but had their payments paused May 15 because of identification issues have been resolved. There are an additional 71,000 people who have submitted claims between March and June but have not been paid due to one or more issues in their accounts, she said.
She said that the agency's goal is to resolve the 10,000 longest-waiting applicants by July 6, and then an additional 33,000 applicants by July 15. She said the target for resolving the remaining claims is no later than July 31.
Nearly 1.2 million people have filed claims for unemployment since early March when the pandemic job losses began, and more than 875,000 people who filed initial claims have been paid. To date, the state has paid...
