Almost hit 600 :)

So in Oct 2011 my TU FICO was 472, a year later I decided to check it again since I've been going by my TU FAKO scores.  My TU FICO is 597!! and I only really started working on my report last month. Smiley Happy

 

Hopefully I will hit 600 by November since there are 4 items currently in dispute, 2 of them are completed and I am sure they will be deleted (they were deleted off of the other CRAs) TU doesn't update the report or tell you the outcome until all disputed items are completed.  I also have a Cap One secured cc that has not reported yet and my fiance will be putting me as an AU on his Goodyear cc. 

 

I still have a long way to go but I am excited about my progress and to think someone wanted to charge me $125 per acct to help me clean up my credit.

Congrats, I remember a time I thought I'd never see the 600s.  Now I'm straddling the 700 line.  Keep it up!

Re: Almost hit 600 :)

congrats! I have 10 items in dispute with TU and it says 5 are complete... why can't I have my 5 updates Smiley Sad you'd think they just wouldn't do anything like EQ does... at least they don't tease you! anywho that's awesome! I hope I am almost there but I don't want to pay to check it when there are a few things I'm expecting to come off.
