Question

I paid off two credit cards will my score go up thanks,?

Answer 1

as long as you havent closed them out you should get a few point increase.

Answer 2

my question would be, did you pay them off at once or  over a period of time. Paying over a period of time is betta, it shows stability in making payments on time, capable of handling debt. paying off at one time with a lump sum is like an uncle passed away and you got sum money and saying here, option A is a reflection of your payment pattern, which impacts your score.
