New Lates or New Derogatory Items: New lates will potentially cost you 107 or more points off your credit scores. New derogatory items will dramatically lower your credit score as well. It is imperative that you make all your monthly payments on time. <br><br>2. Revolving Credit Accounts: Never charge over 30% of the available credit limit. The longer the balance remains high the longer it will have a negative impact on your credit scores. Example: Credit limit of: $1,000; 30% = $300; Do not ever charge over: $300<br><br> 3. Credit Inquiries: Every time an inquiry is made on your credit you loose anywhere from 5-22 points off of your credit score. <br><br>4. Settlement: You must settle on all outstanding collection accounts, charge off accounts, judgments, liens, foreclosures and repossessions. <br><br>5. New Accounts: The higher the amount of the loan, the lower your score can drop. Eileen Hakey from CreditLine IQ (CIQ) mentioned these 5 credit tips in a blast email:
