Thanks to the MyFico community I've been learning a lot about building my credit up. DW and I are looking to refinance our mortgage at the end of this year or early next year so trying to build our credit scores and file up as high as possible to get the best rates. Had some late mortgage payments back in late 2014, early 2015 due to DW's brush with cancer and me getting into an accident and losing a couple months of work. So our mortgage scores have been the slowest to come up. To make matters worse, our original mortgage lender who seemed pleasant to deal with agreed to a payment plan to catch up missed payments but turned right around and sold our mortgage to another lender who held the contract for a month or so and resold it to another. The 2nd and 3rd buyers of our mortgage weren't so friendly. At the end of the say (early 2015) we had caught up all our mortgage payments and have never been late since. However, the late mortgage payments are listed on our credit report by 3 different mortgage lenders when it was the same mortgage.
But looking forward, with the help of the great people on this forum our scores are rising. Thank you to all who contribute here so that we can learn so much.
A couple months ago I was approved for the NFCU Cash Rewards with a cl of $700. Last night I thought what the heck I'll give it a try so I applied for the CLOC and taking the advice of many in this forum I asked for the max and was instantly approved for $15K, my biggest limit so far. At the 91/3 mark which should be mid-June I am planning on applying for another card and a CLI on the Cash Rewards card.
Congrats!! Navy sure does show us a lot of love!
Congratulations!
Congrats on your CLOC!!
No, I'm not military. My father is a veteran and my DW's grandfather retired as a captain in the Navy, served his whole adult life in the navy.
Congratulations on your approval!
