Congrats! where do you pull your Experian scores from?
Starting Score: EQ: 532, EX: 569, TU: 621 (All lender pull 10/15/11)I got an email update, I went to free credit report.com and bought a new experian. I know there are discrepancies but just seeing an increase motivated me. I have been emailing, faxing, mailing, several times a week to all kinds of numbers and addresses since the first of Oct. This is my first positive response. I think its just an old collection bill that was paid a long time ago was removed. I'm still pumped though!
So much for baby steps! Congrats!

Shogun,
I'm very ADHD, I don't do anything in baby steps. LOL I just hope I don't get harrassment charges filed. LOL
