I've sent a GW to my student loan company to remove some lates. I haven't really had any success with them, but it hasn't been going on for very long either. I have a 120 day late in 03/2007. The real problem is this loan is divided into 6 smaller loans and they each report this way.
First of all, any suggestions on getting rid of it other than time? Secondly, how much is it hurting me at 6 years old?
A 120+ day late is a major derogatory and will impact your score for nearly 7 years. It is looked at along the same lines as a CO or collections.
Were you late on each of the 6 loans?
Sort of. The loan was a single lump sum broken into smaller loans but I made one payment. That's why this is such a pain.
Current TU score is 637, my FICO.
These should be aging off by next year at this time...I just hate seeing them there. LOL
If the account is paid, closed you should ask for a goodwill delete.
