Re: Increased by 34 points!

Right on OP.

 

My EQ jumped 32 yesterday, up to 677.

 

TU had me at 662, EQ at 645, EXP at 652.

 

I wonder if the other (2) scores will or have gone up as well?

 

I credit the increase to paying off a personal loan that I've had for a couple of years that is reported to EQ, and paying down my Cap One card to about 20% (instead of maintaining 50-75%) and paying down my Reserve Credit Line at U.S. bank to less than 20%.

,

I feel I need an auto loan to help my credit as well, but I don't need another vehicle....

All I have is a Suzuki motorcycle that I'm financing through Cap One that used to be HSBC, a Cap One credit card, and my U.S. bank reserve line (credit card basically).

I don't have a variety of credit and my average account credit history is just over 4 yrs.

 

Been rebuilding for the past 5 yrs., at the age of 42.

 

Sorry for the threadjack..

Congrats, OP!  That's a great increase!  Did you do anything in particular lately?

 

racerX, if you don't mind me asking, how do you like your Cap1 auto financing?  I'm in need of a car and I get these Cap1 pre-approvals every month (I have a rewards card) but I've never followed through.  I was planning to wait until maybe November since they come every month, while I'm working on getting some things removed.  But I've never known anyone who actually financed a car through them.
