From what to what, and what's the rest of your file look like?

 

Congrats for getting the final collection off regardless!

That 90 day is going to hurt on the older algorithms, maybe bad looking at historical literature regarding the algorithm.  What do you mean security finance from 6/11? 

 

Regarding your file: what's your AAOA / oldest account on the 9 positive accounts, also what's your newest account?  Which I guess I should ask too, what are you explicitly at TU Classic 04 wise?  I'm assuming your revolving utilization is all nice and tidy.

 

For reference when I optimized my file last year pre mortgage (no inquiries / new accounts within the last year, AAOA 2 years, oldest tradeline 7 years, tax lien, collection, 30/60 day lates from 2010) I got up to a 731 TU Classic 04 score.  That was a surprise to a lot of folks though, myself included but we haven't had TU 04 access for very long by that point other than the old lending club pre-approval trick some folks used and no longer exists.
