No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I returned from a weekend camping trip and discovered the following:
1. My experian score increased 23 points to 617!! Woo Hoo. I noticed that Fingerhut did remove a 60 day late. They said they will keep the 30 day late from May 2015 on all 3 CRA's. I will send another GW letter in a couple of months.
2. My TU score increased 13 points to 581!! Again Woo Hoo
3. A collection from Afni/direct tv has been removed. Im assuming they sold the debt. I will pay it once I receive a notice before it goes back on my report
4. A new account posted with my current balance! Yikes! Next time I will wait until the card post on the reports before using it. I plan to keep this account only for 6 months as its a very subprime card.
I plan to do the following this month:
*Lower my UTI (visa down to 30%, credit one to 73%, verve to 82%). Right now these three are 95%
* I applied to increase my security deposit on Discover. I called today and it was denied. Weird becuase I was approved for the full amount when I applied. My income is 80K and I have no new delinquency.
* Continue to work on PFD. Collection agencies are so reluctant to agree to this.
* I do expect my score to dip once my new car loan post and my other one reports paid.
I do have one question: Should I apply for a Capital one once I get my UTI down?
Again thank you for all of your help.
