EQ went up 40 points today!

My alert said my score increased because there was new activity. It was a new credit card. I thought new credit was supposed to drop credit for a short time, then possibly increase credit over time? Does this mean my credit should increase even more? I hope so!

Did you even use it yet? I thought the score either dropped or remained the same until it was used a few times. It is a big CL?

I had a similar situation, I just had my EQ jump 39 points because a new/maxed out nautilis/bowflex reported this month.

Card has a limit of a whopping $500, but I'm hoping once I actually receive the card and activate it, that they will increase my limit.

Ur Utilization decreased so may-be that's the reason. I use this method to increase my scores and it works everytime.But DO NOT get carried away bec it can hurt U in the long run.

I was at 698 and opened a new card w/ CL of 15K fr NFCU and my scores shot up(EQuack) to 715! And it was the lowest of all my scores..

It's a matter of playing the game with the models..

Congrats.

the new CL should help raise you score, if you don't an excessive number recent inquiries, or numerous new accounts, the a new account and CL should absorb the damage done by the inquiry +some
