Yes for myfico members.  Most of the seasoned members are aware how many points one can lose if an AA occurs.

CreditCards.com reported that story and it was posted here about two weeks ago:

Like the poster in the other thread said.. I really wish they would show 30/60/90 with age decay baked in..

 

 

On the 16th I went from 691, to 682 (-9) for using ~90% of a card by mistake.. doesn't even change my overall util but got me for 9 points none the less.. oh well.. easy enough to fix that.

 

On tuesday I should lose my last 60 day late. We'll see what happens after that I guess
