You don't get monthly points, it doesn't work like that, the only way to increase your score is to have good positive open trade lines with no lates and as they get history and age on them your score will increase as time goes on.

How does a derogatory mark affect credit score in points over a year?

I check my friend's credit score monthly as I manage her finance for her. Addition of 1 derogatory mark (account went to collections and got reported to the TransUnion) resulted in a whopping 27 points drop in credit score. Next month the score went up by 13 points and a month after that by another 10 points. Third month after derogatory mark appearing on the credit report, the the score is 4 points lower than it was prior to getting the mark.


Does paying the minimum on a credit card improve credit more than paying the entire balance each month?

The important factors in credit card usage are how long the accounts have been opened, if they have been paid on time and the ratio (or percentage) of the balance to available credit. In the industry, this is known as utilization. Keeping two to four credit card balances under 30% of whatever credit limit you have causes a minor increase in credit scores. Keeping the balances between 1% and 15% will cause a large addition of points.

How much will my credit score improve when I pay 2 charge off accounts?

It won't much. Credit is built by the on time paying of bills month after month. Good credit takes a lifetime to achieve a high score. No one or two payments will cause it to increase much more than a few points.

Can your credit be damaged by paying less than what is due on time?

Absolutely. It won't be hurt as badly as not paying, but your credit report usually shows a status that reads "pays as agreed." If you're paying less than the minimum amount due each month, you're not paying as agreed and your credit can get dinged.

What reflects better on your credit report a zero balance on your credit card or buying something once a month and paying it off?

Buying something and paying it off. It shows the creditor that you are responsible and not a credit risk. Be aware though, you will be flooded with competing credit card company offers.
