Paying Bills On Time – Still Have Bad Credit?

 

“I pay my bills on time, but don’t have good credit.”

Paying Bills On Time DOES NOT mean you have GOOD CREDIT.

Why? Because paying your bills on time – your payment history, only accounts for 35% of your overall credit score! So just because you pay on time, doesn’t mean you will have good credit. You can make all your payments on time and still have very low credit scores! Understanding what accounts for the rest of your credit score is the next step to becoming “credit savvy.”
