Credit over 700 with paid charge-offs?

I was wondering if anyone here has had a credit score over 700 (Fico 8 or mortgage) with having multiple paid charge offs?

Every profile is different but the answer is yes.

 

I had (2) COs from Cap1 showing until August of 2020. I crept up and over 700 and then got "stuck" in the 710s until they fell off August 2020 at which point I finally saw 35+ point jumps and broke over 740s across all three CRAs.

 

I've been "stuck" in the 745-755 since that time.

 

My only two remaining negative derogs are a single 30 day late from Discover from September 2017 and a mortgage lates from September 2015.

 

I don't expect I see my next big move until the mortgage lates fall off next year.

 

I don't agree with the mortgage late (there were extenuating circumstances, sold my home but there was a delay in the payout to the mortgage company at the time to payoff the loan) but I have just let the sleeping dog lie as I am over 740s now.

This is based off of today. I just gained 23 points for paying a charged off credit card with Transunion. Waiting on Experian and Equifax to report.

Hindsight_20_20 that's awesome! Are the charge offs paid? Settled for less? Still unpaid?

So the $600 Capital One Charge off reported to a $0 balance.  Transunion increased 27 points, Experian increase 12 points and Equifax went down -4 which is weird to me. SMH. No idea why Equifax has to be the weird agency.
