Good Morning all...

It's been a long time in coming, and lots of progress with the advice from myFICO members. I just checked my Walmart TU and it finally has that magic 800! I had been stuck in the 790's for months. I paid everything down to $0 and let my Cap1 post at 8%, and that did it. Thanks to all of you for your help...I would never have known how to proceed otherwise.


Congrats 

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?

I say a huge congratulations! I'm jealous and I can't wait for my 800 to come to fruition! Smiley Very Happy I can't wait until the day comes that I've paid off this BT and can report 1-10% on one card.

Re: Finally...I'm in the 800 Club!

I'm a little late to the party (does it help if I bring a really BIG bottle of something?), but congrats, indiolatino!

 

I might break into the 800 club later this year (EQ FICO at 797 now, so close!). Until recently, I couldn't even imagine seeing that number. Good work!

Congrats! That is really great! What was your score when you started your journey?


Thank you...well, my first card was the Cap1 Platinum with $500 CL and my EQ score was a 623, so I was astonished when I got approved. Right before my last baddie fell off my score was a 568. So, in 1 year and 7 months I went from a 568 to an 800. I would never have gotten here without the advice from myFICO members. I really knew next to nothing...lol. Thanks again.

Hahaha...that's exactly what I looked like! Thanks so much, MJ...without your constant ERT SWAT threats, I could never have done it...LOL!  Thank you, all the mods, and all members for all the help.
