Hi everyone! I just wanted to stop in and say that I got a credit report today, actually from one of my credit card companies...I wanted to cancel a "fraud protector" service that they charge me 8 dollars a month for, and before they would send it to me they insisted on sending me a credit report so I could check for any mistakes beforehand. Anyway, I was pleasantly suprised to find that my experian credit score was 720! Yay! And no mistakes in my report, which is good.

Anyway, I'm just stopping in to post, I'm between my two jobs right now and have to run...that's the price I pay to try to pay down my debt, working multiple jobs, as many of you can relate to! No rest for the weary...lol.

Oh yeah...and It turns out I didn't have to raid my savings acct to pay dbf's student loan payment after all! He was able to throw in 50 dollars towards the payment and my paycheck today was about 50 dollars more than I expected it to be, so that's great. I can pay everything this month without taking from savings, although these last two weeks are going to be a little hairy, I just have to make sure I only buy necessary items like gas until the end of the month.

Congrats!! 720 is a very good score! And I'm so relieved you didn't have to tap into your savings for your bills this month. That's reason to celebrate! :-D

Hey, aerandel. Congrats on this fabulous score. Your hard work (two jobs?!) and persistance paid off. Go celebrate (a little) and do something nice for yourself--haircut, ice cream (!), new lipstick, etc. Whiz.
