Does being in good standing with a current credit card rise your credit score even though you still have collections and chargr offs?
Keep in mind that what you have done in the last 24 months is what considered most. You can be in good standing with your credit card--but not using it properly will still affect your score. As Phil Turner said in his book titled "The Credit Bible" "If your credit card balance is over 30% of the balance, this will affect your score." Those collection account and charge offs will hurt, but not as much in 24 months.
