I joined mainly because of D. but a little bit of B, C, and E. Plus I wanted to get some knowledge from others who had been through what I am currently going through now and figuring out a way to get higher scores.

I joined because a company who never sent me medical bills put bad reports on my credit.    I had good insurance but the company refused to put the correct codes in for the insurance company.  After finding this out I wanted to keep an eye on my score so I could quickly fix any unknown situation. 

It gives me good piece of mind.  Also, because I always pay my bills I thought I had great credit.   It is interesting to find out all of the things that affect your score. 

Thanks FICO

I joined because of D. I joined in 2008, but have not posted till now. I have definitely learned a lot from reading the forums.  Now that I'm not "wet behind the ears" anymore, so-to-speak, I can, hopefully, offer some helpful advice.  I'm doing pretty good as far as working on improving my credit score, but I have a ways to go now that the bar has been raised on what is considered a good score.

Currently, my scores are: TU 703 (March), EQ 694 (March), Exp 698 (Feb, requested right before they stopped being a part of myFICO).
