Cause for the first time in my life my credit score is going to bust the 700 mark just as soon as ...
EVERY SINGLE CENT I OWE ON ALL MY CARDS WHICH I JUST PAID, REPORTS
I think I shall be geeking all OCD style on my scores til everything reports
Here we go.... (grabs a bud light)
shall keep folks updated as the mini app spree date approaches.
OMG ROFLMAO I just went through the same thing. Waiting for reports to update so sucks. I think I checked ck every day since the 3rd of Feb for account updates. When all reports updated I got a 20-35 point bump depending on which reporting agency. All over700. Couldn't resist mini app spree at 1am. Amex approved. Freedom pending verification dept Monday. Happy waiting!
Starting Score: 585

CONGRATS! That SOOO ROCKS! (Love the dancing cats, by the way).
Thanks all. 
I know the waiting is gonna suck but on the upside, I beat the Discover statement by two days (it closes this Monday).
I also beat Cap One's statement closing date by 4 days and Amex by 6 days. HA!
I missed the Best buy deadline and the Credit One deadline though by about a week or two...so I will be stuck waiting for them to report til the middle of March minimum.
Of course this gives Equifax time to get with the program and eject the last baddie from my report. TU and EX both already have and I am sitting really pretty with both of them.
Fact is though, I NEVER would have thought about overall Utilization or calling to recon before I found these forums. I just assumed that when I got declined it was final and there was nothing much I could do. Now I know better.
Information is power ... well, when used correctly!
Aint that the truth! I am a pilot and the official regulation goes something like this:
"The pilot of any operation conducted under FAR (Federal aviation regulations) (pretty much ALL flights everywhere) shall be familiar with ALL AVAILABLE INFORMATION regarding such flight operation"
All available information is just an encyclopedia of stuff....and ALL of it helps us do our jobs better. The very same logic applies to Credit. In this information age, there is no reason not to know what is on one's credit report.
and its fun!!!
Waiting for them to update is tough. Congrats!
Starting Score: EQ 717 EX 724 TU 736
CONGRATS on your success!!
