Don't panic, by making the
Don't panic, by making the other bills or debt payments on time, you can build a good credit score. However, it will take some time. I would like to suggest you avoid installment loan. Instead of taking out a new loan, try to earn extra money by considering a part-time job. Ig the nest debt loan is huge, then you can take out a consolidation loan to pay off the current one. What is your income status? If you come with more detail, we can suggest more option.
Don't go for a installment
Don't go for a installment loan or a payday loan. 20 points drop is not a substantial one, it may be caused by sudden credit utilization ratio drop.
What is your credit score now? You will get the same loans at 750 as 770.
The problem with installment
The problem with installment loan is that it has a very high rate of interest. If you really want to take out a loan, then borrow from a credit union. They charge low interest rate on a loan. Alliant is one good option.
