Re: CC UTL-Do I need to pay down anymore before next reporting to CRA's?

yes- That is my opinion

The "Too many accounts with balances" has been an ongoing discussion on the board- it seems to vary a bit person to person-

So you're saying I should pay 2 accounts in full to report at $0?

Thanks Timothy I'll give it a try. I just changed my payments so will keep at least 2 at $0 until I receive my next report to see what happens.

Stay Tuned until the last week in November when I buy my scores again.

Hi Hauling,  Still playing the "waiting game" to find out how the UTL paydown boosted my scores.
 
So far EQ up to 666 without 3 cards reporting $0 bal so I'll give it another week or two but I'm not complaining about a 16 point EQ increase !

I absolutely agree with Timothy, having a couple of those cards report 0 bal and the rest under 9% will give you the best tweak you can get to your scores this month.
