Hello All!
I just recently joined and have started the process of rebuilding my credit. Here are a few things I have questions on which direction I should take or should I just keep chugging along. This is information from MYFico credit report that I just pulled on June 26, 2014
Here are the accounts and the account histories. None of these accounts are with a collection agency I am paying to the creditor and getting a monthly statements.

Sallie Mae
Balance $5049 - they automatically withdraw that payment which after I get some of the above paid off I want to snowball and add to this and get it moving faster- listed as paying as agreed however it is flagged because I was late twice in 2012, do you think a GW will work?
Thanks for being so helpful!

Some of these accounts are old and I'd like to see the postings of them. Looks like next year, you should have much of this off anyway, if not sooner.
