Last CA removed from TU!

Good afternoon everyone!

Just got an alert that my last CA (all were medical) was removed from TU and I got a nice bump!

Had to share! Keep working on getting those baddies off guys! It's worth it!

Edit: clearly I have no idea how to insert a photo.  It was a +45 point bump!

Re: Last CA removed from TU!

Thank you!  I'm gardening for now.  I'm planning to apply for a mortgage after the first of the year so I'm not app'ing at the moment.. And then my next card is going to be a Chase!  Right now I'm 4/24, but will be 3/24 when I apply. Smiley Happy

Congrats!!!  --Most Excellent, I also can verify getting rid of those medical collections helps, among other things.  I was added as an AU to a 22.5K fifth third truly simple, and I paid off all credit cards (only had the lousy ones with 300.00 limits, and 2 secured, disco and capone), and paid off 10 medical and one cell phone collection.

 

So far fox collection (cell phone I think), reports as closed/paid in full, 7 have vanished, 3 remain, that have last report dates of 8/7 and 8/10/2018 respectively - so hopefully next week, they will vanish as well.

But as of now, I've gone from 522 to 620 Experian Fico, I'm hoping when the last 3 fall off to be where you are, around 675, I have ZERO late pays, one closed, and one open auto loan, and one other less than 1K loan that is open.

Again, WOOT, WOOT!  Great Work!

That’s wonderful! Gardening prior to your mortgage app is a smart move, patience patience patience ;-)
