FICO scores only go up when you stay in debt. I refuse to worship at the alter of the Great FICO. To the OP. Congrads on paying off your debt. Debt FREE is the only way to be.. You can now say FREEDOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
I show up to the FICO church periodically because insurers use that score to help determine insurance rates. I use my credit cards to pay some bills, and then pay those cards off to try to help my score. Anymore, I mostly use the cards to pay my insurance.
