27: Delinquent or derogatory status on revolving accounts is too recent
Description
Revolving accounts allow you to carry a balance and your monthly payment will vary, based on the amount of your balance. You have a revolving account with a payment that was at least 30 days late and/or on which a lender has reported a derogatory status. Your credit file shows that this event occurred too recently. Late payments are a proven indicator of increased risk. People with late payments are at risk of being overextended.
Tips
Paying bills on time every month is important to maintaining a good credit score. If you remain behind with any payments, bring them current as soon as possible, and then make future payments on time.
