at what point can you go fromnot good to good, re: payment history

the last time I missed a payment was six months ago...When I started this repair project, for payment history I was bad...after a few months I went to not good. - that's six months by the way of not missing a payment.

 

when does EQ or even TU change from not good to good? does it take 12 months of paying on time?

 

i will never miss a payment again, that's for sure............ever....no reason i don't have that much debt!!

Don't worry about those little thermometer charts. Focus in the score.
