How obessed are you?

ktl55 — Tue, 08 May 2007 15:33:07 GMT

Ok, just wanted to share my obessesion with credit repair. My credit was not that damaged ( I guess compared to what I have read) to begin with but once I got started it became an addiction.

This is my life since credit repair. I update my report every 24 hours even though I have not received an alert from TC or Score Watch that there has been a change. I have 3 folders filled with all the information........i.e green cards, delivery confirmations, CR, confirmed investigation page, and scores from all 3 CRA that I carry with me every where I go. I check my e-mail every 4 minutes (hold on I have to check it again, BRB).................................and I call the CRA just so they can tell me that an account has been deleted just as the CSR told the the day before. I talk about credit to my husband (and anyone else that will listen) at least 3 times a week. I've gotten to the point where I don't even want to use my credit card for anything cause I want UTL down. My son handed me his financial aid paper yesterday and I have not filled them out (of course I will) because I don't want another ding to my CR............

Thanks for listening

What is credit repair?

Seriously though, obsession would be putting it lightly for me.

Well, let's see. While others are off perusing Myspace and Sanjaya fan sites, we're here mulling over FICO scores. At least this obsession bears fruit.

I enjoy doing a lot of things, but I must say that this has become one of my favorites. It feels good when one of your friends or loved ones has a question about their credit and you are able to help them. Keep up the good work everyone!

It is certainly an addiction for me. I read these forums just about everyday to see if there is new information that I can use to better my scores. I get upset everyday I don't get a SW alert....

If yer gonna be addicted to something, addiction to your credit is among one of the more positive things to which one could become addicted. And it gives us another reason for the Internet besides porn.
