| Why is this credit score not higher (see details)? According to the information below, (1) the only reason that I do not have a perfect credit score is because of one inquiry, and (2) my score is 68 points below perfect. A single inquiry should not affect a score by 68 points. Why is the score not higher? "The Following Records are Based on Your [my] Equifax Credit Profile" No Public Records Found No Collection Items Found 4 Revolving credit cards, credit limits from $9000 to over $40000, and 1 utility company account. All 5 "Account Status: Pays account as agreed", no delinquencies. Combined balance less than $500. 1 Inquiry. 3 addresses (1 current and 2 former). "on a scale of 350 to 850 points, you have a score of: 782" "You have never been late with your payments, and no collection accounts or negative public records are listed..." Average credit limit over $17000. Using "1%" of available credit. Only listing under "top factors that lower your score:" is "applied for credit 1 time(s) in the past 12 months". My oldest account is from 1994. The length/age of the credit history is over 10 years. The only closed account on the credit report is the utility company account that I mentioned. I did close some other credit card accounts years ago, but they do not appear on the credit report used to calculate the score. I did not apply for any type of credit. I applied for an HSA (a deposit account with unusual tax implications) and the bank checked my credit report. It is misreported on the credit report as a credit application, when it was actually an application to deposit money, not to borrow money. |
