Also noticed the Capital One 8/2000 Date of Status and 9/2000 Last reported.

Would really like to know why the Date of Status is 8/2000.

And in case anyone is wondering if that first entry is completely accurate it isn't. It should have been closed in 10/1994 and it should read that is was 'closed at consumers request'. I have no written proof of this and never followed up when I sent my final check and asked for the account to be closed but that is the way it happened.

Erik, I looked at Key Bank for quite a while last night.

I finally concluded that you must have brought the account current and Key Bank closed it at the same time in 10/94, since 10/94 + 7 years is 9/01 and that's how long they'll report it.

I would dispute the entire account, they'll probably take it off.

In absence of the "Account scheduled to continue on record until 9/2001" statement, I would have assumed that you closed the account in 5/95, the Date of status.

Experian has some SERIOUS problems with their reports and we really need to find out whether that "Date of status" is utilized in credit scoring.

Please read Citibank and Capital One are NOT reporting credit limits and how it affects one's FICO scores for conflicting responses provided by creditors and CRAs, the finger pointing game continues ...

So, for those new to this subject:

On Erik's report you can see that the credit limit/high credit was reported by Capital One as LOWER than the balance.

The current BALANCE of $93 is nearly double the credit limit/high credit.

How does this Capital One account impact on Erik's credit scores?

From the new NextGen score factors:

A2 Amount of credit available on revolving accounts

Too little? Too much?

Usually the "high credit" is less than the "credit limit." If you have NEVER used your credit card and they didn't bill an annual fee, your high credit is ZERO.

Reporting the high credit could cost points if this factor deducts points for not having sufficient credit available.

OBVIOUSLY you have MORE credit available if your limit is $500 but they report $100 instead because that's the most you charged on that card.

A3 Amount owed on accounts is too high

Too high based on WHAT???????

A4 Amount owed on bank/national revolving accounts

Are we owing too little, or too much, and based on WHAT????

A7 Amount owed on recently opened accounts is too high

WHAT is too high?

A8 Amount owed on recently opened bank/national revolving accounts is too high

What is too high?

B1 Amount owed on recently opened revolving accounts is too high

WHAT is too high??????

B4 Amount owed on revolving accounts

Are we owing too MUCH or too LITTLE??????

B5 Amount owed on revolving accounts is too high

WHAT is too high??????

J0 Length of time accounts have been established

It's a pretty new account (8/2000) and the REST of Erik's credit would determine whether it applies.

J2 Length of time bank/national revolving accounts have been established

Same as J0

J8 Length of time revolving accounts have been established

Same as J0

K2 Time since most recent account opening is too short

WHAT is too short?

K4 Time since most recent bank/national revolving account opening is too short

Same as K2.

K8 Time since most recent revolving account established

Same as K2.

M3 Number of active bank/national revolving accounts

Too few, or too many?

M6 Number of bank/national revolving accounts with balances

We do have a balance. Too many, or too few accounts?

M7 Number of bank/national revolving accounts

Too many? Too few?


M8 Number of bank/national revolving or other revolving accounts

Too many? Too few?

N2 Number of established accounts

Too many? Too few?

N7 Number of revolving accounts

Too many? Too few?

N8 Number of revolving accounts with balances higher than limits

Erik loses many points right there.

P5 Proportion of balances to credit limits on bank/national revolving or other revolving accounts is too high

Depending on Erik's other accounts, possibly another big point loss.

P6 Proportion of balances to credit limits on revolving accounts is too high

Same as P5.

Q0 Proportion of revolving balances to total balances is too high

Same as P5.

Q1 Proportion of balances to credit limits on bank/national revolving accounts is too high

Same as P5

T0 Too many accounts recently opened

That again depends on the rest of Erik's credit.

T1 Too many accounts with balances

Same as T0.

T2 Too many bank/national revolving accounts

Same as T0

T5 Too many inquiries last 12 months

The account was opened in the last 12 months, so there is propably an inquiry.

T6 Too many recently active accounts

Does having a balance mean active?

T8 Too many recently active bank/national revolving accounts

Same as T6

U4 Too many recently opened accounts with balances

WHAT is too many and WHAT is recent?

U5 Too many recently opened bank/national revolving accounts

Same as U4

U9 Too many recently opened revolving accounts

Same as U4

V0 Too many recently opened revolving accounts with balances

What's too many?

V3 Too many revolving accounts

Same as V0

V4 Too many recently opened bank/national revolving accounts with balances

Same as V0

X0 Payments due on accounts

The reported minimum payments are too low? Too high?

The above are the NextGen risk factors that could be impacting on Erik's credit score.

PLEASE post here on the impact of reporting the credit limit vs. high credit vs. no reported limit ONLY.
