I just pulled a new Equifax to find that the new Newport News card that I haven't even received yet is reporting and another acct. was updated to show a lower balance. My score went up another 6 pts. and I am now at 700 on the nose. Feels good!!
That's awesome LKH!!! Just think. . .another 20 points and you'll be PRIME. . .not that you aren't already!! (hee-hee) ) Keller
LKH you have worked so hard for this and I am glad to see it. Congratulations! (you really deserve it). -Peace, Dave
Wonderful! Too often we hear new accounts are detrimental to your score. Glad you're heading in the right direction.
Congratulations!!! Good job!! I am so jealous!!! But I am waiting for CE to update my score so maybe (hopefully) I can be close behind ya!
Thanks everybody. I appreciate it! Jimrie - I started my credit repair in March of 2001 with pathetic scores. I think my Equifax was like a 520. I actually finished my repair in January, but then a couple things reappeared from Gulf State and I had to deal with that. Since then, it's just been work to keep credit ratios down and adding a few new accts along the way. Since the first of the year I have received via bdd, a citi plat select, target visa, household gold(which may get dumped) Amex gold delta skymiles and the Newport News card. I've also gotten good increases on a few other cards I had.
