I started my credit repair journey 8/03.
My FICO scores looked like this:
EQ:526
EX:492
TU:455

Prior to CB my CC accounts were:
Providian: 1k
CCB:1k
HH bubble card:$700
Crap 1:$250
Total:$2,950

After reading till my eyes bled, asking questions, using trial & error reasearch, deleting old info, CRA disputes, nutcase letters, 1-2 punches, ITS letters, a little luck and having my parents add me to their CCs as an AU, I was able to completely clean up TU and EQ and have 1 paid CA & paid judgment on EX.

I started my application spree in May '04 when I did my scores looked like this:

EQ:758
EX:701
TU:672/704 (split file)

Since May '04 I have applied and been approved for:
Amex Platinum:No limit
DCU:$13.5k Visa Plat
HH Trio:$22.5k total
FNANB Ciruit City visa:$10k
PenFed Visa Plat:$30k
PenFed PLOC:$25k
1st Tennessee Visa plat:$10k
Chase:$7k
RNB Target Visa:$700 :shock:
Total:$118,700

BTW, everything but Chase is reporting and my scores looked like this today:
EQ:727
EX:693
TU:670/702

I think that I am going to take a rest on the applications for a while.
