Q: How to ensure my CIBIL doesn’t get wrongly damaged?

Answer

A: To keep your credit record safe, you need to make sure that the account status is correctly updated after settlement or closure with the right written confirmations. You should get a settlement letter that clearly states the exact amount due, uses the phrase "full and final," gives a timeline for updating the status, and confirms that the balance is zero after payment. Keep a clean payment trail by using UTRs, bank statements, and official receipts. These will be used as proof if you need to dispute a correction later. After you pay, make sure you get a No-Dues/NOC and a closure confirmation letter. Then, check your report and file a dispute right away if any entry is still wrong.
