Parking Scam

[willie99]

Even a conversation about about parking scams / fees can get BoneYarded, it's phenomenal.

PS: My children and grandchildren are absolutely brilliant

This is about the weirdest flex ever on a basketball forum.

It's a weird one indeed.


Sadly, or funny enough, it's not even top 5 for weird flexes on this forum.

This thread can't be serious, am I supposed to care about someone's credit score?

I thought it was SATs.

Can you beat 848? Or you're just pontificating?

848.1

A credit card company issuing a new credit card due to suspected fraud does not impact credit score. Full stop. End of story. Fini.

Where do people come up with this crap?? Getting a replacement card does not impact your credit. At all. Not one bit.

Remember when this thread was about QR parking scams and not credit scores?

I had an 848 credit score once. Have you ever seen that? I have. Credit history matters.

Cancelling your credit card doesn’t affect your credit score. But paying off you mortgages and car loans will definitely lower your credit score. So if you have a 848 score it simply means you are carrying an extremely high level of debt but you are making all of your payments.

It's supposed to be about avoiding QR scans at a parking facility.

You shouldn't cancel your card. Screws your credit history.

Getting a new cc# will have zero impact on your credit score

Cancelling your credit card doesn’t affect your credit score.

It does if it's your oldest card.

Hey tough guy, my response was clearly referring to poster in #35 not the OP. Grow up.

The guy who rightfully said cancelling a card, like OP did, won’t affect your credit score? He’s clearly referring to cancelling a CARD and having it reissued, like OP did, not cancelling a credit ACCOUNT.

Cancelling your credit card doesn’t affect your credit score. But paying off you mortgages and car loans will definitely lower your credit score. So if you have a 848 score it simply means you are carrying an extremely high level of debt but you are making all of your payments.

I think you have to show the ability to be debt free before you can get a high rating with high debt.

Now that there is a Boneyard MD board we need a Boneyard CFP board.

Screw it. Turn this whole thing in to UConn Reddit with subreddits.

The first two sentences are correct. The rest is inaccurate. Paying off a mortgage or loan does negatively affects credit score because you are closing accounts, reducing available credit, and reducing types of credit you have. To get an exceptionally high rating, you need multiple types of lines of credit, an impeccable payment history and a good debt-to-equity ratio.

Bragging about credit score is worse than bragging about your high school basketball stats.

Guys stop liking this comment. I am the guy who brags about HS basketball stats.

The danger in this thread is that it’s still very early in the season, and the boneyard may be peaking too early.

I love this website

It actually might be. Definitely on the list anyway. The one off was quirky but wasn't all that bad, but doubling down and asking people to beat it was hysterical. The fact that he's reminiscing about it "I once had an 848 credit score" is pretty good stuff as well. Granted, not love potion good, but still pretty good.

At least when he's talking parking and credit cards

 

[GG]

I had 848. Damaging your credit score isn't worth $50. IT's stupid.

The credit card is simply reissuing his credit card. It does not impact his credit score.

 

[Yardigan]

Getting a new cc# will have zero impact on your credit score

But might make it harder to guarantee a parking spot?

This whole thread is funny but this comment just took it over the top….thank you
