just got collection off/ how much will credit improve

EDITED

That is impossible to say, because it depends on your overall report. I gained 40 points recently when my last negative came off of one of my reports. I would wait until it is gone and then order all 3 of your reports including FICO score.

The above is a forum about credit and is probably the best credit site anywhere. I am not sure if the question you have can be answered or not…but almost any credit related issue can be found reading through the forums, or by asking questions. Check it out sometime.

Good luck.

you also might keep in mind, continually ordering your FICO also doesn’t help your credit score, because it looks to them like someone is pulling your credit. just a thought…

…also credit reports pulled for the same reason during a short period of time (someone can help me with that duration…) count as a single pull – like shopping for a new car.

HEY JUDD,

IN 30 DAYS AMEX SHOULD CLEAR UP MY CREDIT REPORT. THEY HAD PUT SOMETHING UNDER COLLECTIONS WHICH WAS THEIR MISTAKE.
CURRENTLY I HAVE A 625 FICO. I’LL LET YOU KNOW HOW THE NUMBERRS GO UP.
