Had to join

[Anonymous]

After lurking for a few months, I had to join today to share my good news.  I am in the process of fixing my credit.  I have one credit care Premier, and yes it sucks.  However I paid my bill in full last month and the previous month.  I ran my updated credit score today and guess what?  My score jumped 71 pts.  I am so freaking happy.

Welcome to the forums.

I hope you stick around and continue to share your experiences. All of us are trying to learn as much as we can from each other.

Hey roni!

Woot-woot!

And that score you pulled was a FICO from this site, right?

Hi, there! Yeah, I had to join, too! I just posted my intro. Welcome, and nice to meet you.

Oh, and to add... yes, that's an amazing jump! I'd literally be jumping up and down over it! I did that three weeks ago, when a dispute was settled in my favor and I got a 30+ point boost to my score!
