[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 313488, member: 1963"] Also be aware that ANY time ANYONE makes and inquiry/adjustment to your accounts, that is reported to the credit agencies. It also makes the account current again. husband and I found this out years ago when a CC we had closed with no balance was still showing as active on our credit report. The CC company and issuing bank were using this tactic to 'bump' the account. [/QUOTE]
