Iknwo prople who are in 795 and also some oen who I saw with 813
850 is the highest oen can achive, but there are poepl out there wiht the score in 800 range
That is thier average score
Oen thignk I ahve seen is they do nto apply for too many loans and also they never had any lete payments in life
Lot of money in bank and very few credit cards or merchant cards
So if you keep that way ti is achievable |

Guidelines to push credit score to maximum are as below-
1)Have three to five revolving accounts like credit cards
2)one or more installment account like a mortgage or auto loan
3) the older your accounts the better it is for credit score and rating
4)all accounts must be in good standing
5) limit hard credit inquiries to no more than one a month
6) don't charge your credit card more than 15% of the credit limit
Then over the time, you will get a near perfect credit score and rating. |

| Sara, you seem to know some things about credit scroes. What is the highest achievable score? I never heard of one in the eight hundreds but that doesn't mean it is not possible. |

Also it would be good for the reader to know abotu the various tricks you are talking about |

Thats correct the credit score range is from 300 - 850
The score is calcuted based on all the information in yoru credit report
Major afctors which can affect this would be lenght of the credit history and the amount you have borrowed and how logn is yoru credt and the type of credit you have and any new accounts |

| So now i thought i had a good credit rating I just got demoted to just fair with a 740 rating.Sounds like a big scam just to keep interest rates higher on goods and insurance premiums higher because in michigan they check your credit score before they give you a qoute. |

| Trying to help my son get on track, but there are many terms that I don't understand. What is a "fall off"? What does it mean to your overall when a debt is designated "settled"? Is it at all beneficial to go back & pay that debt in full? What is a "write off"? If a debt has gone to a collection agency, is there a benefit to the credit score to go back to the original creditor? What is the best strategy? Pay off the oldest debts first? The smallest debts first? HELP, please! Thanks. |

| Is that true on with every one of the three credit reporting agencies, do each of them use the same scale? |

goodnatured, they do not. My credit score differs between each one. I think its ridiculous really. They should all be the same; especially because certain places only look at certain scores. It could be the company that rates you lower & then your interest rates are higher. I personally think they should all be the same OR there should be just one credit bureau to handle credit scores/reports.
My boyfriend had a 740 score before his bankruptcy & he got excellent rates. My score was 690 and I got "average rates". I honestly don't even know what my credit score is right now because there were some things that messed it up. I'm trying to rebuild it back up though after the mistakes. |
