Advice on Best Course of Action?

Hello All,

 

I have had some good success recently increasing my credit score and have a few items i am not sure what to do with.  As of now I have one CC that I just paid down to less than 15% utilization.  I also have a deliquency which i am saving to do a PFD within the next 3 months.  Here is a list of all other negs from TU.  I am just looking for advice on what to do with these at this point.  Leave them alone, try for EE...?

Any advice toward increasing my credit score by other ways is also appreciated.  My FICO scores are around the 640's, 1 CC w/ 1250 limit, almost 20 installment loans (school through SM/Navient/DoE), no auto loans, mortgages or judgments. 

 

Thanks in advance.

Way too soon for EE. Get a couple more bank cards under your belt. If you've got a year of history on your credit card, I'd suggest Barclays. Cap One will likely let you back in as well since the CO is five years old now.

Re: Advice on Best Course of Action?

My current card is a capital one card, almost three years old now.  I applied for a huntington rewards card about a year ago but got declined because of too many inquiries and the delinquency.  Would Barclays still be a good one to go for?  Seems like i need better credit to get one of those from what i have seen on here.  Another Capital One would be acheivable though.  Thoughts on the Barclays?

Get another Cap-1 and hold off on the Barclays till the Cap-1 CO is 6 months from date last reported (11/25/14)

Re: Advice on Best Course of Action?

well i went ahead and did it.  After some research i found others with similar scores getting approval for barclays, so i applied and got approved for the barclays rewards mastercard with a 1k limit.  Its not a big limit, but its a hell of a lot better than a denial. 

 

Any body else have any suggestions for the accounts on the original post?  I would love to be able to get those off my report within the next six months if possible.

What kind of report is this?

None of mine have the field "Account Sale Info" and I would love to have that information.
