There is absolutely nothing I can do to boost my FICO score I am being dinged for Length of History / AAoA. Below is my profile:
All I can do is let everything age... Anyone want to add me as an AU on their Amex that was opened in 1990?
lol
FWIW, in another 4 months, you should hit 2 years AAoA, and I think that will help a bit.
Painful when the AAoA goes down instead of up, isn't it? I just lost 11 on EX (via PSECU) when a duplicate card from Penfed showed up, after they had a data security boo-boo. Naturally, it was the newer card, opened in April of last year.

That really made me laugh. I've been reading too much on here, but for some reason that was just plain hilarious
No quick fixes but you've done all the right things, now need to let time improve things.

You know, you are probably right. I just finished my mortgage refinance and got 4% at 15yrs with 0 points. Only thing I really need credit for is if I decide to upgrade my vehicle and want the best rate... But isn't the only reason we all stick around here is to play the FICO game and get the best score?!
