700 finally!

Finally hit 713 on TU Fico. If only Equifax would fix my split file I could raise that 685 over 700.

Re: 700 finally!

Does Experian usually lag behind the other 2 with corrections/deletions after you fix with OCs?

Actually, the consensus around here is that EX is usually the FIRST to update with TU being the slowest.

Re: 700 finally!

Well my birthday goal was 720. I came up a little short. I am 713 on TU, 703 on EQ and 710 EXP(Quizzle FAKO)

 

Good news is I have 2 missing positve accounts with the always troublesome EQ report  that should come back and 4 inquiries will drop off TU soon. I should hit 720 by end of Summer.

 

I started at 564 and 538 back in January of 2011. So I hope this gives the newbies some inspiration...

What did you do that increased your score the most.  I need 50 points by October so that I can purchase a home.

Re: 700 finally!

Congratulations randaljon!!! Good luck on getting your EQ fixed soon.  When my split file got merged, my score plummeted 77 points.  Thank goodness yours should go the opposite direction!
