Segmentation (-) and removal of derogatory (+) might net him a gain. Of course, this is pure speculation as I don't have any hard data points to support it.@AllZero It's not which is more detrimental. When you are re-assigned, you are compared against a different subset of people and different weighting is applied to scoring factors.
As a result, everything is weighed and calculated differently. I've seen people with an old derogatory fall off, and they lose significant points because they lack other old accounts. Search the forum, you will find them. It's hard to predict when there is reassignment due to an old derogatory falling off with no older accounts.
But, lucky for OP, he has other old accounts, so he should see the rise you predicted.
I agree with you. Perhaps, a poor choice of words. I was implying in regards to score impact, points.
I'm guessing your score has rebounded some due to the paid charge off 2 months ago. Get your EE on.
