Questions about my last negative accounts

Aug 032010
 

I’m a long time lurker, first time posting. First of, I want to thank myFICO forum and the supporters in here. I really learned alot about credit from reading this forum. I started reading this forum in 2007 when I was in rebuilding mode. Since then I’ve handled my finances ALOT more carefully, and applied all knowledge picked up here almost religiously (paying my credit cards twice a month to keep utility down, for example).

 

To get to the point, I was doing my annual credit report pulls, and was left with a couple questions unanswered after searching post after post.

 

In my credit report, I have 3 negative accounts as listed below from Experian.

The questions are,

1) I count 10 derogatory items, is that correct? I was scratching my head a little bit when I pulled my scores earlier.

2) I wanted to know if someone could approximate when these negatives fall off my report, because when I was going through my EQ and TU reports (the free ones and the ones from myFICO), they don’t list the approximate dates for me. No pressing need, really, just waiting to get to a point when my credit record is spotless once again. I’ve been wearing this scarlet letter as a form of penance for my reckless abandon as a teenager.

 

Thank you very much for reading!

question on CR status

Jul 212010
 

Good Afternoon Citizens!  I have a question, that I am hoping someone can assist me with…In viewing my report, I notice that an auto loan that we had, and paid off in full last July is showing in the Current status as “30 days past due” and the the Past due Amount  section as “not reported”….however, in the payment history, it states “0 times”  30, 60 and 90 days late.  Plus, ,it states balance as zero (as it should)   Any ideas on why it would  say 30 days past due?  Thanks much!
