It%26#039;s all up to your credit card company. Some report to credit agencies regularly, some report to them every 3 months. It may sound weird, but it%26#039;s better to have a small bit on your credit cards than pay them off totally. Part of your credit score is based on your line of credit and how much of it is open. If you close your account it doesn%26#039;t help. If you have a very small balance, it will show you as having x amount of credit and having a large portion of it still open. What I do is use each of my credit cards every month and buy like $20 or so on them, then when I get the bill I pay it off. It took a while and a LOT of change in my spending habits, but it%26#039;s helped me out a lot

It is my understanding that creditors like to see you pay your debt off over time, and not all at once. So, it actually benefits you to have small balances on some accounts. The best way I%26#039;ve been able to raise my score quickly is set up autopayments to my creditors on a weekly basis PLUS pay the monthly minumum.

Credit bureaus will actually penalize you for having a lot of accounts with no or low balances, because the potential to put yourself in debt.

Close out any extra accounts that are paid off and that you don%26#039;t use.

Also, many banks have free credit reports/ and credit report evaluations. Go talk to someone there to see how you can best raise your score.

paying off all your cards will not increase your credit score. They need you to make payments on the cards. Paying them off is not making them any money. Get it? Credit cards are a rip off. But they need you to pay the monthly payments. I know this because I was paying them off every month and my credit score never moved. I ask questions and this is the answer I got. You have to make monthly payments for awhile, then your credit score increases. Don%26#039;t sound right to me, but thats the way of the world, greedy, greedy, greedy!

If you pay a bill late that hurts your credit score. I%26#039;m not sure if it helps it that much if you later pay the bill in full. (That%26#039;s why a lot of people file for bankruptcy.)

Good luck.

It will take 3-4 months at least, (you may have to call the creditors and REQUEST them to change it) and you won%26#039;t see a huge jump up in your credit score immediately, but it is a good idea to get those paid off. Two years ago, I had a low 500%26#039;s for my score... Fresh out of a divorce, yadda yadda... I got a collateralized credit card, kept that paid down (and on time) and a year later, got my first %26quot;real%26quot; credit card (don%26#039;t fall for the %26quot;unsecured%26quot; cards that stat you out with $200 or more in %26quot;fees%26quot; - SCAM city)... A credit card with a low balance and regular payments being made will do wonders for your score!

Send the creditors a letter that states that you will pay them and in return they will close the account, remove it from your CR, and not pass it on or pursue you on it in the future.

Make sure theres a place for them and you to sign.

Send it out and wait for it to come back.

See hyperlink #1 for a sample letter and be sure to send it certified return-receipt-requested.

When dealing with your creditors, follow the rules in hyperlink #2.

Using these two, you should be fine.
