LB.....your math is a little off, by 299,950. There have only been 50 as of your post. No, I don't think 50 represents the norm, particularly when the 50 posts are comprised of about 9 distinct posters. ***My Cats Christmas List*** 2* Not it's not because I wasn't referring to just this thread but all the post on the board.

As far as the zero balances giving a lower score than low balances, that actually makes sense. If you have no balances, you are not showing that you are able to handle credit. This happened to a neighbor when I was growing up. He always paid cash for everything. Then one time he decided to finance a car. He got turned down because he didn't have a credit history. When he protested, saying didn't the fact that he always paid cash for whatever he needed mean anything, the banker told him that it didn't. All that means is that he'll spend the money in his pocket to pay for whatever he wants. There is no proof that he is able to make a payment every month.
(7) Pay every bill on time from now on and don't be late EVER! 1*lbrown59, Are my scores going to tank to the 500's soon by keeping my overall balances under $100? I would love to hear your expert FICO advise on this! Is it really designed to bite me in the butt? J.

done or still do, wouldn't you say that is manipulating your credit scores? Cinderella ----------------------------------------- It's more like defending your self against a shell game.
