Hello,
If I pay off $75k which is my total amount of credit debt, will this increase my credit score? I am revising this question I just asked earlier. I have no other revolving debt than this. I am sorry for the lack of information in the previous question. Thanks for all the help out here!

What is the statute of limitations for credit debt in Nebraska?

ckudron73 asked:


I received a phone call from First National Collection Bureau regarding a debt from Sept. 1998. I don’t recall having an account with the bank they mentioned. They sent me a letter stating that if I don’t respond to them in writing then they would assume the debt is valid. I have no records, even credit report, that shows this debt. Should I worry about this?

When should you pay a credit card bill?

Dreamer asked:


I have heard that it is better to pay a credit card bill a couple days before the due date yet others have told me to pay on the due date.
I know not to pay past the due date so don’t worry about that but does it make a difference paying a couple days before the due date rather than on it?

I have poor credit and debt. I am barely getting from payday to payday. Should I use my VA loan eligibility to purchase an affordable home, and consolidate my debt with a home equity loan?

Can someone else pay my credit card bill?

pay credit card bill
ny asked:


I read about it, once. Two credit cards bills got mixed by mistake, and people paid them, without actually checking them! Can my huge visa card bill be sent to some dotty old woman in Cornwall, and I will receive hers, which will be 39 p for two cans of cat’s food, which I will pay without questioning. Fair is fair, after all. Can it really happen?
I cut out that article from the newspaper and stuck it inside my wardrobe, where my roommate, Susan Cleath-Stuart can’t see it.

Would paying one thing off of my credit debt change my score a little bit?

Mami21 asked:


My credit score is 544, and I have two outstanding debts on my account, one is a medical bill for $380.00 and another is a cell phone bill for $1,025.00. If I paid for my medical bill in whole, how many points do you think that would bring my score up until I am able to make some payments on my cell phone debt?
