Re: Installment tradeline utilization thread

I'd confirm if if I had a clue what you guys are talking about. Smiley LOL My report has actually been rather un-busy for a couple months. Last new account hit in late July and my reported util has been the same at 3% for several months, coming from a single card reporting.

Re: Installment tradeline utilization thread

Trying to analyze your score changes relative to changes in installment loan balances based on your previous post. I am not sure if I was reading your loan info properly.

 

Nothing related to CCs or CC utilization - specifically loans.

Yeah, I know it's not related to CC's. I added that additional info because it relates to file activity.

Thanks for the follow up relegate.  I decided to just leave the loan as is for now.  Maybe I'll pay it down a little extra later.  


Just a question to the forum here...

 

Hypothetical situation here...

 

Say Crazyfarmer pays the student loan down a few weeks from now and does find that he recieved a 10 point bump that puts him in a lower interest rate tier for his mortgage loan. Can he ask the mortgage lender to do another score pull before the closing date?


Starting Score: EQ 653 6/21/12
Current Score: EQ 817 3/10/20 - EX 820 3/13/20 - TU 825 3/03/20

Thanks - I had assumed other factors were held "constant" but it is best to confirm. Your data is pretty solid but I wanted to confirm sequence of events which I understand as follows:

 

CAPTOOL's event sequence viewed in aggregate:

 

(525+4558)/7050 = 72.1% => (125+4558)/7050 = 66.4% => 125/2050 = 6.1% (new loan & balance not on CB report yet)

@ * ........score 712 @ 72% => score 723 @ 66%, score 722 @ 66% => score 741 @ 6%

 

The aggregate view suggests a breakpoint between 72% to 66% (at 70%?) and perhaps 2 breakpoints (or one with a larger impact) going from 66% to 6%.

 

 Am I re-stating the event summary with corresponding scores correctly?

Now I know what the verbiage is when installment loans are paid way down.

Wow! That's great!

 

Congratulations!

 

Should we start calling you Mr. Captool now?

 

800 plus! You made it!
