Re: my experian score will not rise

A couple of questions.

 

1.  Where are you getting your scores?

 

2.  How similar or dissimilar is the information across your three reports?

 Something sounds off here.  Before doing anything else, I would suggest posting exactly what is in your credit report (leave the account numbers out, but open date, reported history, current balance and credit limit, dispute flags, comments, etc on it)

 

The 4 tradeline recommendation is a traditional underwriting standard, when we're talking building credit for getting approved for various things, makes sense to satisfy all the requirements, but 2 years clean history on 2 credit cards should be higher than what you've reported on a FICO 8 model which the EX score here is.  For that matter, the rest of your scores should be higher too from what you've described... either there's something still reporting as a non-trivial negative, or the tradelines are in dispute, or something akin to that.

If you pulled all three of your scores from myFICO, I can't see how you would end up with scores in the 660s, much less 587. Forgive the question, but  you have absolutely no judgments, BKs collections, or lates on all three of your reports? Are you certain that your judgment has been deleted? Something must be off.
