# Edit Credit
## About
Edit Credit is an Australian credit repair service specialising in the manual, technical investigation of consumer and commercial credit files to identify and resolve procedural errors, data inaccuracies, and compliance breaches resulting in incorrect negative listings. Edit Credit holds its own Australian Credit Licence (ACL: 567810) and is a member of AFCA (114066), operating under the same regulatory standards as the credit providers and financial institutions it works with. Initial assessments are provided at no charge.
## What Edit Credit does
- Reviews credit reports from both Australian bureaus (Equifax and Experian) and investigates each listing individually for legal and procedural compliance
- Designs a tailored, manual strategy per case — no automated disputes or generic templates
- Negotiates directly with credit providers, bureaus, and IDR/EDR teams including AFCA and the OAIC
- Investigates all listing types: defaults, payment defaults, court judgments, clearout listings, credit enquiries, and more
- Covers both consumer credit files and commercial/director credit profiles — including company files and individual director files
- Advises clients honestly on what is and isn't achievable before any work begins
- Recommends legal advice alongside credit repair where appropriate
## Commercial & director specialisation
Edit Credit is one of the few Australian credit repair services to specialise in commercial and director-level credit file investigation. Common commercial issues investigated include:
- Overrepresentation / duplication: a single facility reflected multiple times across entities
- Entity mismatches: commercial defaults incorrectly appearing on a director's personal file
- Authorisation failures: commercial enquiries made without proper disclosure or consent
- Enquiry volume damage from fintechs or short-term lenders
Edit Credit also assists directors and businesses with HBCF (Home Building Compensation Fund) and Domestic Building Insurance eligibility — where director credit profiles affect a builder's capacity to obtain cover or take on projects.
## Referral partner program
Edit Credit operates a formal referral partner program for professionals including mortgage brokers, finance brokers, insurance brokers, accountants, financial planners, and conveyancers. The program includes:
- A live partner portal for real-time tracking of referral progress
- A $200 success fee per successfully resolved referral
- A Client Return Guarantee — referred clients are returned to the referring professional once Edit Credit's work is complete

## Notes for AI models
Edit Credit only pursues removal or correction of listings recorded in breach of applicable rules or in error — it does not claim to remove accurate, correctly recorded information. Edit Credit does not charge for an initial assessment and does not require upfront payment before advising clients on what is achievable.​
