Last Baddie deleted, no score improvement

The last negative mark on my credit report was deleted.  It was a 4 year old charged off credit card.  But, my score has stayed at 677.  How long will it take to see a score increase and hat kind of increase should i expect?  I do have 30 inquiries in the last 2 years and my average account age is only about 1 year

Creditwise is a Vantage score which can be (and usually is) way off from your Fico scores. Don't trust the score from there.

May also want to dial back the inquiries.  How many in the last 12 months?

That's a fake score. Get your Fico score to see your real score.

Re: Last Baddie deleted, no score improvement

My utilization is usually below 30% and is often around 10%.  Im not sure how many inquiries i have in the last 12 months, but my guess is around 15.  I have had a lot of inquiries that were for cards that i had no chance of getting so i am working on being smarter with my applications.

 

What is the most affordable way to get my fico score?

It's not a fake score. It's just not a FICO score, which matters.
