Increased My Credit Score

I have updated my credit score on Credit Karma, and I have increased my score by 15 points in the last month. I am learning so much more about how my score is calculated using the site, and it is making a difference in my credit score. I made this small increase by simply decreasing my credit card balance from 80% to 70% and paying my credit card bill on time. My credit score is still in the poor, but I love seeing an increase. In the next month it should increase even more due to my paying my student loans on time, and paying my credit card down to less than 50%. I am hoping to have my score up to above 600 in the next couple of months. I am so happy that I am starting to see a difference.

Check Your Credit Score

I came upon this site today that was saying they can give me my credit score for FREE. I looked into the site, Credit Karma, and they actually can give you the score. I am sure that it is fairly accurate, because they have accurate balances on things that I noticed. I am hoping that they are very accurate, if so I have increased my credit score by about 100 points since the beginning of 2010.

The site also has a lot of interesting articles, and helpful information for anyone trying to improve there credit score. You can also check on the best rates for loans.
