My wife didn't realise that making multiple applications for 0% cards would hammer her score. She also had 1 late payment in last 6 months.
I know it stays on file for 6 years but how long should it take for bet credit to increase from poor to good providing she makes no more apps and pays on time? Should a year do it?

I think searches stay on for a year?
