Just want to say thanks for an awesome board with tons of helpful information. My current scores are a Equifax 564, Experian 618 and not sure about transunion. Looking to get into the mid 600 range for a mortgage in the next 6-8 mths if possible. Thanks in advance for any help or advice you can offter.
Â
I have been working on rebuilding my credit but I’m unsure of what to do with a few accounts or how to procceed.
currently have two charged off credit cards, no payments made since 2006 one and 2008 on the other. I have never contacted the creditor and was wondering what advice you would have with regards to these. Should I attempt to settle or do a PIF, dispute etc.

I also have a few other collection accounts mainly medical bills and one old utility bill. I have disputed these but have not had success in getting them removed.
