Pulled score power last month (3/18/01) score= 670 resons= 40/14/10/20 I had one settled credit card removed Other differrences were: couple new inquiries and one new account (sears)on this new report and the results are as follows: 04/02/01 score= 687 reasons= 40/14/10/128 So, that settled account (it was from 9/99--last activity 12/98) was worth at LEAST 17 points, probably a little more since I now have this brand new account reporting and those inquiries. Just thought I'd share and add to the knowledge base
That is great news! Congratulations.. How were you able to repull your score power? The option to pull another doesn't show up when I log into Equifax?
Most likely. Before equifax came out with their scores, I got my score at Q-Space. After over a month plus some more deletions later, I wanted to see what that would do to my score. I re-requested another Q-Space report. Unfortunately they did not update anything, everything was same.
Yes, you have to pay again BUT it was worth just to see that shoot up....it's like a personal victory in a way. The account that was taken was not mine and I spend many many hours trying to "fight" it. Silly me, came off on my first dispute. am
I know what you mean! I almost hired an attorney to remove 3 30 day lates from a mortgage.. he only wanted a 500 buck retainer to get started.. I decided after two years to file a dispute and it was off my reports in 30 days for the cost of certified mail. I tried to reorder my score from equifax, but it says I already ordered it.. oh well..
