My score has been dormant for months. I got an alert today that my score went from good to very good. It went up 8 points
I know not a big leap but it moved to 743
.
Nothing has changed other than maybe some accounts hit one year mark, that's all I can see, my citibank card reported after being dormant and it's a year old along with Navy and penfed.
It was nice to see it move even if it was only slightly.

Congrats on the increase, I wouldn't say 8 points isn't a huge leap though, that is a nice jump in points. Whenever my score goes up 8 points I am really happy and consider it to be a big jump.
Congrats! Anything is something! ![]()


























Congratulations! Any gain is a win if you ask me but you’re inching closer and closer to that optimal rate score!
Thanks all![]()
If it wasn't for those mortgage lates which they will not remove, I know I would be high 700s maybe even hit that 800.
8 points is awesome! I was wondering how long your period of dormancy was. Thanks

The last time citi had reported previously was Oct 2018.

Glad to hear your score went up 8 points. Keep in mind that good verses very good stuff isn't relevant, as it's just front-end software assigning arbitrary "ratings" to your score.
My Experian score has been "dormant" for months, too. I suspect what that really means is I've reached a plateau. Going beyond that will require some old baddies to drop off completely before it will go any higher. That will happen in due course!
