I’ve also been trying to improve my credit score. I’m learning that it takes awhile to improve a credit score but it can be done. Your credit score is based on several things such as: the total number of accounts you have, what type of accounts, any occurring late payment fees, outstanding debts, filing bankruptcy and age of accounts. Often creditors take into consideration whether or not you own your home and if you’re currently employed, and length of employment. Creditors then take all of these factors and combine them together using a credit scoring system to come up with your credit score.
You can improve your credit score by always making your payments on time, or before the due date, if possible. Work on paying off any outstanding debt. Pay down credit cards and never exceed your credit limits. Don’t apply for more credit cards until you pay off the ones you currently use. Ideally, it’s best to have no more than two credit card accounts. Usually excessive credit card balances and overdue accounts seem to be the two most common negative factors when it comes to a low credit score. Hope that helps!
