★★★★★ 5.0 · 2 borrower reviews
Parachute consolidates existing debt and nothing else. Funds go straight to the creditors. The credit score window runs 600 to 750, so it screens out weak files and strong ones alike, and income has to be salaried and above $30,000.

Parachute's band, not floor

Too good a score also falls outside

Below 600 the answer is the familiar one. Above 750 the answer is also no, because the published range has a top as well as a bottom, and the product lives between them.

The bureau must be clean

No bankruptcy, consumer proposal or judgement can appear on the credit bureau. The wording covers the record itself, not only programmes still in force, so a discharged history still shows and still counts.
