So, my last baddie fell off earlier this month. I was finally eligible to pull my free 3 bureau report from EX today. The result is that my TU went up 42 points to 785. I don't know exactly how much the derog accounted for as several things have happened on my report since then: new account (FNBO) reported, another card reported $0 balance.
Interestingly, TU still lags the other two by 20+ points with the accounts reporting the same balances. TU and EQ are exactly the same on the open accounts and EX is reporting a small real estate loan that the other two aren't. It will be interesting to see if TU catches up to the others over the coming months.
















Starting Score: 469My TU reports the same as others and is lower as well. Congrats on the big bump!
Thanks, @JFox418. I don't know what it is, but I will investigate over the next couple of months to see if anything changes. Maybe they hate the new accounts worse than the others.
