Michael Petruccelli asks; What are some tips for giving your credit score a boost? (14)



Michael Petruccelli says;  Use an old credit card
Credit card companies often stop reporting your account if you don’t use the card for several months or years. Dust off the card, use it to make a few small purchases, and the creditor will start reporting again. Doing so increases your available credit limit and your credit history length, since the old card is showing active again.
