Wholesale Tradelines – Client Agreement
PARTIES. This agreement is intended to be a binding contract by and between Tradeline City (hereinafter “Tradeline City”) and the undersigned client (hereinafter “Client”). By signing this agreement, Client certifies that he/she is at least 18 years of age, that the information he/she has provided to Tradeline City is true and complete, that he/she is legally authorized to enter into this agreement and authorize the actions of Tradeline City as set forth herein, and that he/she will not use any of the services of Tradeline City or any information provided by Tradeline City for any unlawful purpose.
DEFINITION OF TRADELINE. The term “tradeline” technically refers to the line-item for a credit account on a credit bureau report. As used throughout this agreement, however, the term refers more generally to a line of revolving credit, such as a credit card, which forms the basis of the credit bureau report tradeline. The act of adding Client to another person’s tradeline consists of adding Client as an “Authorized User” on that person’s line of credit, resulting in the tradeline also appearing on Client’s credit bureau report.
SERVICES PROVIDED.
A. TRADELINES. Tradeline City agrees to identify one or more tradelines (as indicated in the “Tradeline Order” clause below) on behalf of Client and perform all functions necessary to have Client added to those tradelines as an “Authorized User” on or before the date of the first billing statement following the date of this agreement for each tradeline. It is understood and agreed by both parties that Client will maintain “Authorized User” status on those tradelines until three (3) days after the second (2nd) statement/closing date for each tradeline after being added thereto, after which he/she will be removed therefrom. Accordingly, it is the understanding and intent of the parties that Client will maintain “Authorized User” status on each tradeline for two billing statement dates, and that Client will receive two postings of each tradeline to his/her credit bureau report. The parties further understand and agree that Client will only be added to tradelines with the full advance knowledge, consent and participation of the primary account holder of the account to which that tradeline pertains. The client also understands that there is consulting work being done throughout this process and that fees charged for such purpose will be nonrefundable. Sometimes, for a variety of reasons, the Tradeline Order does not report on the first billing statement following the date of the agreement. In such cases, Client understands that the Tradeline Order will report on the next (second) billing cycle following the date of this agreement. If the Tradeline Order does not report on the second billing cycle, Tradeline City agrees to provide a replacement tradeline of greater or equal quality at no additional cost to Client. If the replacement line does not report for whatever reason, then a store credit will be issued if client does not desire an additional replacement line.B. CREDIT SWEEPS. A “credit sweep” is a term of art which refers to a general review and evaluation of a credit profile and the subsequent initiation of disputes for problematic or inaccurate information contained therein. Specifically, by promising to perform a “Credit Sweep” Tradeline City agrees to (i) evaluate Customer’s current credit reports as listed with applicable credit reporting agencies and to identify inaccurate, erroneous, false, or obsolete information; (ii) to advise Customer as to the necessary steps to be taken on the part of Customer in conjunction with Our Company, (iii) to dispute any inaccurate, erroneous, false or obsolete information contained in the customer’s credit reports up to 4 rounds, (iv) To prepare all necessary correspondence in dispute of inaccurate, erroneous, false, or obsolete information in customer’s credit reports, (v) to review credit profile status from the credit reporting agencies such as: Experian, Equifax and Transunion; and (vi) to provide consulting, coaching, and monitoring services are conducted by personal meetings, webinars, video conferencing, telephone, email, or by any other form of communication during normal business hours.
C. INQUIRY REMOVAL. Tradeline City agrees to review Client’s credit reports with a view towards identification, review and removal of old, non-current credit inquiries from the report. Non-current credit inquiries are inquiries which are not associated with current credit accounts maintained by the Client.
D. 5K PRIMARY. Tradeline City agrees to assist Client with obtaining a “primary tradeline” with a credit limit up to five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) which can be incorporated into the Client’s credit report.
FEES. Client agrees to pay, and Tradeline City agrees to accept as compensation, the fee specified in the “Order” clause below. Client understands and agrees that this fee is to be paid in full prior to the commencement of any work or delivery of any services by Tradeline City. Client understands and agrees that no work will be performed by Tradeline City until it has received the entire fee, and that all fee payments received are to be considered earned upon receipt and non-refundable. Consequently, Client agrees that any partial fee payments received will not be refunded to Client in the event Client fails to pay the remainder of the fee, although Client will retain the right to pay the remainder of the fee and receive the services of Tradeline City for up to one year from the date of this agreement. Client further understands and agrees that after one year from the date of this agreement, any partial fees paid by Client shall be forfeited to Tradeline City. Client further agrees that in the event any method of payment is returned or declined for any reason, Tradeline City may remove that Client from any tradeline to which that Client has been added until such time as that payment has been replaced with good funds.
FAILURE TO PERFORM. The parties agree that if Tradeline City is unable to identify all of the tradelines contemplated by this agreement, Client shall be entitled to a store credit equal to the total fee set forth herein divided by the total number of tradelines contemplated by this agreement, then multiplied by the number of tradelines that Tradeline City was unable to identify (ie, total fee ÷ total number of tradelines contemplated x number of tradelines not identified = store credit). That is, the fee set forth herein has been calculated by multiplying the fee for each tradeline by the number of tradelines to be identified, with the fee for each tradeline being equal to the fee for each other tradeline and the fee for each tradeline consisting of an equal percentage of the entire fee. In the event Tradeline City is unable to fully perform, Client will be entitled to a store credit for only that percentage of the fee that Tradeline City failed to earn.
PROOF OF NON-PERFORMANCE. The parties agree that in the event Client has not been timely added to the specified tradeline(s) in accordance with the “Services Provided” clause above, Tradeline City shall have the sole and exclusive option of either adding the Client to a different tradeline of equal or greater quality, or crediting the Client’s fees to him/her within thirty (30) days of the date it receives written proof from the Client of Tradeline City’s non-performance, provided such written proof is received by Tradeline City by email or text message within twenty-one (21) days of the date by which Client should have been added to the specified tradeline as set forth in the “Services Provided” clause above. It is understood and agreed that such written proof must be in the form of a report generated by either creditchecktotal.com or Equifax Complete Advantage Plan, and that no other document or other form of proof shall be valid or binding upon Tradeline City. It is further understood and agreed that Tradeline City shall not be bound or obligated to issue a refund, store credit, or to perform any other act, or to refrain from performing any other act, if the proof submitted by Client varies in any way from that specified above, is transmitted by any means other than email or text message as specified above, or is received after the twenty-first (21st) day as specified above, all in strict compliance herewith.
AUTHORIZATION. Client hereby grants to Tradeline City full authority to use his/her information for the sole purpose of adding him/her to the selected tradeline, as well as for any other purpose necessary to accomplish the goals of this agreement. In furtherance thereof, Client authorizes Tradeline City to perform any and all acts necessary to accomplish the goals of this agreement, and agrees to execute any and all documents necessary to facilitate Tradeline City’s performance hereunder, including but not limited to any power of attorney or letter of authorization. Client authorizes Tradeline City to sign and or electronically sign any and all documents pertaining to adding tradelines, credit sweeps, inquiry removal, 5k primary, on your behalf.

Client agrees that in that event, any and all fees, costs and other money and funds of any kind paid to Tradeline City shall not be refunded to Client but shall be retained by Tradeline City and considered to be liquidated damages for Client’s breach of this agreement. It is further understood and agreed that Tradeline City’s damages in that event shall not be limited to the fees, costs and other money and funds described above, and that Tradeline City does not hereby waive its entitlement to any other damages to which it may be entitled in law or equity.
ASSUMPTION OF RISK.

INFORMATION STATEMENT TO CLIENT
You have a right to dispute inaccurate information in your credit report by contacting the credit bureau directly. However, neither you nor a credit repair company or credit repair organization has the right to have accurate, current and verifiable information removed from your credit report. The credit bureau must remove accurate, negative information from your report only if it is over 7 years old. Bankruptcy information can be reported up to 10 years. You have a right to obtain a copy of your credit report from a credit bureau. You may be charged a reasonable fee. There is no fee, however, if you have been turned down for credit, employment, insurance, or a rental dwelling because of information in your credit report within the preceding 60 days. The credit bureau must provide someone to help you interpret the information in your credit file. You are entitled to receive a free copy of your credit report if you are unemployed and intend to apply for employment in the next 60 days, if you are a recipient of public welfare assistance, or if you have reason to believe that there is inaccurate information in your credit report due to fraud. You have a right to sue a credit repair organization that violated the Credit Repair Organization Act. This law prohibits deceptive practices by credit repair organizations. You have the right to cancel your contract with any credit repair organization for any reason within 3 business days from the date you signed it. Credit bureaus are required to follow reasonable procedures to ensure that the information they report is accurate. However, mistakes may occur. You may, on your own, notify a credit bureau in writing that you dispute that accuracy of information in your credit file. The credit bureau must then reinvestigate and modify or remove inaccurate or incomplete information. The credit bureau may not charge any fee for this service. Any pertinent information and copies of all documents you have concerning an error should be given to the credit bureau. If the credit bureau’s reinvestigation does not resolve the dispute to your satisfaction, you may send a brief statement to the credit bureau to be kept in your file, explaining why you think the record is inaccurate. The credit bureau must include a summary of your statement about disputed information with any report it issues about you. The Federal Trade Commission regulates credit bureaus and credit repair organizations. For more information contact: The Public Reference Branch Federal Trade Commission Washington, D.C. 20580.
You should be aware that you have the right to raise a dispute directly with a consumer reporting agency if you discover any issues with the completeness or accuracy of any item contained in any file on you which is maintained by the consumer reporting agency.
You should be aware that accurate information cannot be permanently removed from the file of a consumer reporting agency.
