My credit isn't great at all, but I owe nobody nothing anymore, all my debts are paid off. (my credit report is, however, ugly, lots of negative activity/reports, but everything is paid off nonetheless)
I paid off my last remaining debt just recently. So, the "catch up" part of my credit rebuilding is complete. Now it's time for the re-establishing.
I don't "want" a credit card nor do I need one. But I'm concerned about idle credit. Will having no current positive activity hurt or help my credit score?
I busted my butt for too long paying off debts, I'm not about to let my score go back to POOR again! I want to get my score up to good standing. Right now I'm not good but not poor either. It's "not good", lol.
So... should I get a credit card, will it help in re-establishing my credit? Or let my credit remain debt free for a while and recuperate so to say and re-build itself?
thanks! =D
