How much does a slow pay, 60 days, hurt your score?

Hurts a lot

The older it gets the less of the hurt that being said a new one will sting a long time

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

30 and 60 day lates are minor derogs. They hurt bad at first, but diminish fairly quickly. They lose some sting after 6 months, quite a bit after a year. After 2 years, they really don't factor in.
