    Arrow My FICO score has gone up 63 points in the past 4 months

    How the fudge is that possible?


    I ain't complaining, though. I guess I've moved up from debtor's prison to debtor's parole.

    Any number of reasons.

    Reduction of ratio of revolving debt to available balance.

    Cycling of slow-pay to older time periods (the longer ago a slow-pay was, the less it hurts you, which of course makes sense.)

    Six months of on-time pay history.

    Collections or slow- or non-pays aging past 7 years.

    Just off the top of my head, those are the most likely reasons. There could be other explanations, of course.

    You know, for whatever FICO is.

    Depending how many there are out there, yeah, you can really see a pretty major increase in your score. FICO model assumes that derogatory credit over 7 years old isn't really statistically significant as a predictor of future bankruptcy.
