Re: I JUST WENT DOWN 58 POINTS

Utilization is a part of your score. The drop when maxing cards out is to protect lenders as it's typically not a good sign if someone is applying for credit with maxed out credit. This is why as a long term plan it's good to almost build more credit than you need so when you need to use a chunk of credit it is nowhere near your maximum.

 

Overally if you paid off the credit cards you would get those points back when the statement cuts and Credit report is updated with the lower/zero balance.

EQ04 675, EQ08 676, EX08 719, TU08 703 $12704.75/$123050 Revolving Credit (All 0% or 1.99%) - In Garden Since 5/25/2016

Last negative item should fall off in July 2017.
