휴대폰 요금 미납
In the case of cell phone bills, if you do not use automatic payment, there are cases where you forget to pay. Late payments on small amounts, such as cell phone bills, can have a negative impact on your credit score
In the case of communication charges such as cell phones, it is a relatively small amount of the amount to be paid, so if you do not designate direct debit, forgetting and overdue frequently occurs. The problem is that it has a bad impact on your credit score when you are overdue due to unpaid communication fees. In the case of credit scores, you will receive the most penalties for overdue small amounts such as utility bills, micropayments, cell phone bills, etc.
Therefore, cell phone bills should never be unpaid or overdue. The best way is to set up automatic payment of communication charges.
If you are not currently paying your cell phone bill automatically, or if you are curious about how to check your unpaid cell phone bill details, please refer to the article below.
