It’s amazing what fewer collections and lower credit card balances can do to someone’s credit score – and how quickly they can do it!
After connecting with a nonprofit credit counselor on our platform, John F. saw a collection account come off his credit report. Combined with his dedication to paying down his credit cards, this helped John’s credit score rise from 532 to 636 in just two months!
How long does it take to raise your credit score 100 points?
John’s result is not typical; the average CredEvolv customer sees a 53-point increase in 3 to 5 months. But a 104-point credit score increase in such a short period of time shows what’s possible when a consumer and a counselor craft a plan together and execute it.
In this case, John followed the counselor’s advice on how to tackle his credit card debt. Meanwhile, the counselor worked to delete the collections account that was also weighing down John’s score.
As the saying goes, teamwork makes the dream work! And by “dream,” we mean achieving John’s ultimate goal of a 700 credit score!
