What have been your biggest accomplishments and obstacles so far in the myFICO Fitness Challenge this year?
As December begins and the days continue to get shorter, I remain in the garden. Currently at 1/12 & 2/24. Not ready for another CLI attempt yet although the Apple card is top of the list for that once I cross the six month window from my last CLI.
Very little change on this month's 3B pull. Average across all 40 scores went up by 1 point.
My goal is to have all three FICO 8 scores at 780 or above.
Eq is at 783
TU came up a little to 766 but is still behind the other two.
Ex hasn't budged at 777, so close.
I plan to remain in the garden for December. I'll keep my utilization below 2% and will practice AZE2. I just received a SP CLI of $7,800 on my Chase SWPC. I'm going to reallocate those dollars to my CFU and CSP ($5,000 and $2,700) respectively. I'll do that sometime this month. Trying to get all reports to 850--just my own silly game I'm playing.
Hello, everyone!
I'm a bit late to the challenge this year, but I've been working on my credit and thought I'd share my progress. I got my first FICO scores in October. Both of my cards have finally posted their updates for the month. My EX8 is sitting at 727, and my EQ8 is sitting at 736.
I'll be gardening for the foreseeable future, though I've been looking at the Discover Student card for the categories & my FICO score from TransUnion.
Wishing you all the best on your credit-building goals! See you in January.
