Yes...and I'm tracking all reports in a "virtual blog" on this forum. After I have about two months of data, I'm going to ask one of the admins to forward it to whatever department in his corporation is in charge of FICO score calculations, so they get an idea of why consumers are fed up with the credit scoring system.

And for the record, I didn't get a deletion, far from it.

I did pay off a charge card a few weeks back, but got a 13 points raise for that.

So far this month, my score has increased 38 points, with 4 points loss due to an Orchard Card inquiry.

Everything else is pretty much the same except for the fact that my CO'ed balanced are updating slowly, as I have settled 70% of my old accounts.  Have yet to see any increase to those.

I will be starting a new thread about something interesting though.
