Small point incress

I paid off all 3 of my cc's which were all maxed out.  When the first one reported I got a 26 point incress. One hasnt shown up yet cause I just paid it today. The other only gave me a 4 point incress. Does this sound right? Is there a chance it could go up more soon?  Im disapointed......

What did each payment do to your util %?
The slide from grace is really more like gliding
And I've found the trick is not to stop the sliding
But to find a graceful way of staying slid

1-3% utiilazion on all cards. Why would it show a 26 point on my wamu but creditone showed 4 point.

Re: Small point incress

If the WaMu payment posted first, it might have dropped you down from a really high util to something more midline. For instance, maybe it took you from 51%; to 19% (completely making up numbers here.) Then when the second posted, it didn't represent such a dramatic drop, or you didn't go below the next tier of util. Maybe from 19% to where you are now. Do you remember what your util was at each stage, and how much it changed between payments?

I'm sort of grasping here, I'm afraid. Smiley Tongue

Re: Small point incress

If you just paid your Cap1 down/ off on Thursday, has it actually reported to the credit bureaus yet? Scores can't change until the reports change. (still grasping here!)

Your individual cards were 90 - 95%; do you know what your overall util was? FICO looks at both...

CAPONE hasnt reported yet. My online account now shows a ballance of 50 dollars on it. Every card was maxed out bad. id say average was 95% utilazation. So the WAMU came threu first the creditone bank with a low point.
