Crown Jewelers & TU

[Client9]

I sent my check in the mail a few days ago.  I will most likely see the bump in score around the first of August is my guess.  I will pull scores in mid August to see the bum up.  If I get the 30-40 poitn burst on EX and TU, I will be in the 660 club across all CRAs.

My new Crown Jewelers account showed up on Monday 7/7.  I opened the acct about 3 weeks before so be patient.  It raised my score about 18 pts so it was well worth the $100.  I'll be making my partial payment of $25 this week.

Thanks Kahuna... I opened my account around three weeks ago or more. It DID report to my EX account, but not my TU.

Kahuna, Please confirm if it posted to your TU account on 7/7.

Also, Kahuna, was this your only revolving account or just a new one?

Yes, it only showed up on Experian but that is the CA that is used by the lender I use so it was great.  And no, it wasn't the only CL.  I have about 4 others, some closed and some open.  IMO it was worth it....now if I only had $5000 to pay off a charge-off I'd be able to really recover!!

Well...that's our problem...CJ is only showing on EX right now...and TU are moving like turtles...to update their records...

This is beginning to become frustrating...i would like to know what their hold up is!

I am starting to worry that the $2500 CL that many of us who were approved for $1500 AND the fact that TU has not reported is no fluke... I am starting to wonder if they are not having some issues (CJ) on their end. It makes no sense that it has not posted to TU yet. When they report to one, they report to all....unless some of you have seen other things slow to update to your TU account. Then, I would think that the problem is on TUs end.

Regardless, it is sooooooooo frustrating!

Actually, I don't think any CC or credit account is obligated to report to all 3 agencies. There was a thread on this board previously that said that CJ reports only to 2 agencies, but since EX was one of them I decided to apply anyways. The only problem would be if you apply for a loan and that lender pulls only your TU report. I have some CC's that report to only 2 of the three and in some cases it hurts and in some it helps.
