Hi Everyone...
DH and I have been in DMP for 9 mos now, with 40 to go!
Quesitons about life along the way in a DMP and life afterwards...
Did you see your scores increase as debt was paid down?
When graduated from DMP, did CR still show DMP participation for any accounts?
How long, on average, does it take for late payments from life before DMP to not show on CR?
I would love to hear any feedback (positive or negative) about your credit scores, obstacles, triumphs along the way.
Both DH and I have learned our lesson with spending and saving.
We have an above average income for our area, but put most of what we have into paying off our current debt (reasonable mortgage, 1 car payment, DMP HUGE payment) and childcare. There is not much left to save at the end of the month.
We do know, however, that there may be a time in the future (will hold off as long as possible) that we will have to think about taking out some kind of loan for a car or major home repairs... I just would like to know what we have to look forward to.
Thank you in advance.
Kelly
