Congratulations on your success ! ! ! 

 

FAKO's do serve a purpose, and that's to monitor TRENDS in one's credit journey.  And looks like you've got a very good TREND going on ! ! !

 

ONWARD AND UPWARD ! ! !

Re: Started from the bottom....

Might want to pull an actual FICO soon, just for reference.

 

My CK score is at its lowest score in 2 years (594)....Yet my TU and EQ FICO are at 661/676 right now...

 

A friend at work shows a 702 CK FAKO, but his actual TU FICO is at 639..........

 

Just something to think about, but im sure you definately have increased your responsibility!

Re: Started from the bottom....

Congrats it shows how hard you have worked to become a 700 club member

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Re: Started from the bottom....

My last score watch update has me at 694. I haven't pulled TU to compare with CK FAKOs and have no need to. I'm firmly in the garden and my last TU app was with barclays US air card April 4th. I have everything I need (cash back, airline, hotel and points) and I will stay here nursing tenderlings and scotch till 2014! 

 

 

Thank you, thank you all. I was a total credit moron 3 years ago and my my, things have definitely changed!
