Don't Know If I Was Ever In the 700 Club, Until Now

What a long battle. . . but two years to the day from my last late payment, a secured card and a couple of others to help dilute the mess I created, and I pulled TU today and my score went up 8 points to just over 700!

 

No update yet from SW for EQ but the simulator last month said within 30 days I will be only 11 points short of the 700 club there too.  Maybe by July I will be in the 700 club on that one if I can keep my balances down.

Well done
The slide from grace is really more like gliding
And I've found the trick is not to stop the sliding
But to find a graceful way of staying slid

Congratulations, on your success. Smiley Happy A few days I ago, I added a new credit card with a nice credit limit. My score prior to the new addition was at 678, and I was hoping the new addition would bump into the 700's. I fell short by 6 points, and I'm okay with it. It's closer than further at this point.

After hitting the 700 club (TU) in March 2010 for the first time, it took me longer to hit 700 for my EQ FICO than I had thought but I got a SW alert today I made it 703!

 

Slow, painful but rewarding.

 

What a great way to end the year Smiley Very Happy
