Yeah the 30% utilization is kind of a lie. Ive seen it drop to under 700 with 30% utilization. Under 10% is a much better target. Under 5% got it up to a 770. Aveage age of 1.5 years, 15 accounts.

Wow. I'm so confused now. I only want to make one payment. I've seen multiple other videos say pay just before the statement date but the statement date is after the due date... meaning late fee... they made no mention of making 2 payments 😵💫🤔🤦🏽♀️

So if you paid almost the money you used before the closing statement and leave let’s say $100 bucks and paying it before the due date to keep it under 7% and start a new statement cycle and then you use your credit card again would be adding that amount on the due date or for the statement cycle?

Paying twice? You only have to pay once. As long as you pay it down before they report to the credit bureaus. Paying more than once does nothing.

I normally keep my utilization at perfect 0%….. is that a problem? I purchase things normally but pay it off almost immediately… I have not seen my score go up for a good long time now. I did apply for a new card and got approved, after the approval my score did bumped up a tad bit but not much… idk what’s holding back my score. Everything is paid off and I use a few of my cards regularly… I just don’t get what I’m doing wrong? Is too perfect bad? 😑

My my due date is 23 and statement date is 25/26. I’ve been paying the current balance in full few days before due date and try not to use the card until the closing day passes. So my balance statement always stays at $0. Have I been doing correctly? My credit score has always been around 720-750. But it never increases to 800! Is it better to have a little more in balance like +2% -9%?

I took the most roundabout way of learning this possible 😂 The first credit card I opened was the Amex Gold, which doesn't have a credit limit & I thought "wow that's sweet!" only to learn that because of that it doesn't help improve my credit score. So then I opened a Chase Freedom Unlimited with a $500 credit limit (lol), used the 30% trick and that did absolutely nothing for me. The next statement I was like "OK I'm going to keep utilization under 10%" and after that my credit score jumped 50 points. So ya, the 30% thing is a lie.

I know this is a month old, but from my understanding, the Opening/Closing Statement covers the previous month's history, because most credit card issuers offer a "Grace Period" on their cards (There are some that don't, so make sure to ask about it with your credit card issuer). Basically, it has nothing to do with your due date, which only covers the current month. This is why the Closing statement is always first, because it covers a specific time period (In this case, its always the previous months worth of transactions). Lets say I have a Discover card, which has a Grace period of 25 days. My Opening/Closing statement on my bill is from Apr 28 - May 27, and my next payment due is on Jun 22. I will be paying for my cards usage during May 28 - Jun 21. *MY TRUE OBJECTIVE* however, is to have my balance in that sweet spot of 9% or so *BEFORE* The closing statement arrives again on Jun 27. This is why Daniel Iles recommends you pay before the closing statement, and then before your due date, because it is the best strategy to avoid Interest charges/missing a payment, AND it keeps you in that 9% threshold for the Credit Bureaus. Of course I am just learning like you are, so I could be mistaken, but this seems to make the most sense to me after looking through my history.

@@monkeybingo373 If paying off that amount leaves your Utilization rate at 9% or slightly below, then that is correct. Paying your "due balance" is just to cover the amount owed so you don't get charged interests, but ensuring your Utilization rate is 9% or so is your main priority. Lets say my credit is $2000, the balance $1000, and my monthly payment $50. My $50 dollar payment is only relevant to what i'm supposed to pay every month. After paying, my balance remaining is $950. Since my Credit Line is $2000, I want to ensure that I pay off the remaining balance so that it shows I only used 9% of the Credit Line before my closing statement date. I already know that 10% of $2000 is $200, so that means that my remaining balance needs to be at around $180 so it shows 9% Utilization rate, and 150 so its the 7.5% Iles recommends.

SO If my Due date is the 28th of every Month, I should Pay it off or pay it down as much as possible AND if my Statement CLOSING date is the 3rd of the following month, I should Pay it OFF or down as much as possible on the 1st of every month because on the 3rd it reports to the (3) credit bureaus and on the 4th starts the NEW period ? Is that correct?

I started with a Discover secure $300 credit card. Every month before six months. They kept reminding me to use it properly and after 6 months I would be eligible for a non secure card and refund. Sure enough after 6 month got my $300 back and graduated to a $1800 regular card. Now is were all strategies come into play. They will no longer guarantee a credit increase every 6 months. They may do it periodically but you have to ask for increase. Definitely keep it way below 30% utilization ✌️.

Does having multiple credit cards affect credit score?
@DanielIles
2 жыл бұрын
Yes! Often more credit cards and more available credit will improve your score. You may see temporary drop in credit score after applying for a credit card due to the average age of account being 0 months and likely a hard pull on your credit. However, after six months the benefits outweigh the short term drop. I have plenty of videos explaining this and way to get around the temporary drops on my channel!
