Still trying to knock down that 760 barrier hehe
Edit:
I hit the love button and went from 2.4k to 4.9k yay!!!
1.1k -> 2.4k -> 4.9k
All in 6 months.
The August 2012 was normal since I got it right after getting my card on the mail, only inqs showing up at this poing.
The next month, with all the new accounts being reported to the bureaus, score went down 15 points.
October and the 759 surprised me, util was low as always and no big changes from last month.
Big drop on November and December was because of util issues during the holidays.
No big changes in January and February reportwise. I guess my profile is more flexible now andi it's growing right back up without the need of perfect util. Util still high at 20% but that's because I made a big purchase. Let's see where it goes next month, 740 would make me very happy ![]()

Up 14 points to 787, my highest TU score ever! However, next month it'll probably drop, for neither my new Penfed Plat Cash Rewards (17.5 K) nor my new AMEX SPG (2K) are reporting to any of the CRAs yet.

Thanks, kevinijc. I'll practice my patience. (Something I am (not) sooooooo good at.)

Oops! Forgot to mention that I also had 1 CA removed after GW. I'm sure that also helped with score increase !
