Pay off outstanding debts.
Pay off the credit cards with the highest interest rates first.
Start paying everything on time, if you haven't already.
If you have more than 3 revolving accounts (i.e. credit cards) that are open, consider closing them.
Check your credit report and make sure it's accurate (for free of course from www.annualcreditreport.com).

First pull your credit reports and see what needs to be fixed. you can pull it for free at http://www.annualcreditreport.com. You can pull it one time per year--1 from each credit bureau.
Next set a plan to pay off your debt. There is a great website that explains all about your credit report and how to clean it up

Consolidate your debt to one credit card and pay that balance down. If you don't feel secure in taking this matter into your own hands try consumer credit counseling (google it for your area).

pay your bills on time. Get a copy of your credit report and begin to make deals with your creditors to pay off your old debts and have them removed.

Pay off the credit bills you have and don't acquire anymore.
