virginiacouple147 Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 We have some great news here..I'd love for it to be greater but hey, I'll take what I can get.Hubby situation: 2 paid tax liens, were not budging and had been verified a few times even though amounts and release dates were fluctuating. He also has bunches of revolving accounts, why? cause he could of course! He ended up with a good dozen or so 30 day lates simply from missing the dates ..too many accounts to manage I suspect. Anyway he paid off and closed a bunch of them, which could of course hurt his score next week but let's focus on today shall we? (He has no charge offs, no bankruptcy etc)As of now, all of his lates but 4 are GONE, and one lien is GONE!His scores have come out of the high 500's to the mid 600's! We expect it to vary a lot as he moves through the transition of having far fewer revolving accounts tho.My situation: I have had a couple of charge offs on my credit report for years because of divorce crap and hey....the bills did not get paid,. I have had not one credit card in my name in 7 years oh and I had a couple of paid collections... the drop off dates for these these things is coming up so I started disputing them. I had scores in the low 500's and I checked my scores last night...707 and 695!!!!!!! Equifax is at a measily 612 but I suspect that will come up soon because a couple of things dropped off yesterday..I didn't buy the score for them because it will update through a credit watch thing I have when it goes up, anxious to see it tho! And the best news... ok its a little laughable... I got a Macy's card in my very own wittle name with a $100 limit yesterday!!!!!!!yahooo thankyou CIC!!!!
