Hey Hauling - did I get the "new bucket" alert?

[Anonymous]

busywoman you have been a busywoman I see! Congrats on the new bucket.

What did you receive the message from?

Hi Jaybee,

I received the alert from SW.    We'll see what happens when I pull my scores next week.

I increased my BOA Secured card by $200 and added Hooter's $1850 CL and paid 3 cc's down to $0 so hopefully this will pay off.

It definitely should help a out. I paid 2 of my cards down and saw a nice bump in scores!

[Anonymous]

That's my game plan as well but it may be masked by my new TU Inq, new Hooter's CL as well as my new "buckets".

I'd rather deal with this now than a few months down the road when I'm shopping for my 1st mortgage.

I appreciate your feedback.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving !

True it will be a lot more stressful then too.

You have a Happy Thanksgiving as well.

jaybee, I was awfully close to canceling ScoreWatch when I got my alert. I don't know how nuts I would have gone if I had found that my scores had suddenly dropped, if I hadn't had that vague explanation, so I'm keeping SW for now.

I use just one card for all my obsessive report- and score-pulling, and almost the entire activity on that card is credit score-related. I'm still trying to decide how much of that is funny, and how much is pitiful.

Ah- Another one with a dedicated account for credit monitoring/score pulling.

Maybe myFICO will give you a LOC? LOL

Oh No!!  Not another lecture on mangos, bananas and other tropical fruit

hauling that is funny I just said the other day that since I have "out grown" HSBC then that will be their job to pay for my scores--I wonder how will they like that!

My HSBC card does not even rate for "Score Power" anymore.
