Hello!
I would love some advice on how to raise my scores...I'm not sure if I'm actually doing it right but here are the scores..TU: 660, EQ:518, EX:619. I have one credit card the limit is $200 and the current balance is $0, I have a car loan of $15,000 and $200,000+ student loans in deferment of course. I have one collections and a charge off that I am currently working on now (wrote a pdf for both) and two late payments on car from last year -I wrote gw letters to have this removed.
Any advice on what to do from here....
I would honestly get another credit card , secured if you have to.,.. also believe it or not having a 0 blance is pulling your score down. you should carry $10 balance.
Great! Thanks for the advice.
Since you have a charge-off that is unpaid, the usual next step is for the creditor to recoup a bit more of the delinquent debt by sale to a debt collector, thus resulting in the addition of a collection.
That account would most likely be my priority, not to improve currernt score, but to prevent additional damage.
You might wish to consider payment if they balk at a PFD,
