TIPS: FICO claims that being 30 days past due on an account may drop a credit score by 60 to 80 points, assuming the consumer started with a score of 680.
FICO recently noted that settlement on a credit card debt can cause a person's score to drop 105 to 125 points, assuming it was at 780 to start.
