I guess if you're a hyper car dealership owner who is fixated on getting cars sold and off the lot, and uses credit scores to make it happen, you're going to keep yapping over and over about this. Unless he's just a malicious SOB who knows your DH is sensitive about his scores and likes to rub his nose in it.
I figure that most of us here have had, shall we say, adventures in credit land, and we're all in recovery mode. It was not quite 15 months ago that a brand-new 30 day posted on my reports and drop-kicked me back to 590, and I'd say that this is true for the huge majority of us here.
I'm glad that he cares (so many people don't!), but as long as he's moving forward and not backward, that's what really matters. Tell him to use a CC to go buy some earplugs for the next time that Mr. LoudMouth starts up again!
