Hi trashy, take a look at this pie chart:....................
What’s in your FICO® score
FICO Scores are calculated from a lot of different credit data in your credit report. This data can be grouped into five categories as outlined below. The percentages in the chart reflect how important each of the categories is in determining your FICO score.
As you can see, 30% of your FICO score is based on amounts owed. The less you owe the better. We call it the utilization factor.
How much your scores will go up depends on the credit limits and balances on each account. Anything over 50% utilization is considered bad in FICO's eyes. Paying only $100/mo. will take you a long time to pay off the balances. And you will not see much of a rise in scores if your utilization factor is to high.
Can you list the credit card, the credit limit and balance of each cc? We can answer you better if we know those things.
