Appreciation post: I finally got my credit score over 700 by setting up a $25 auto-pay for a card I never use.
I kept forgetting a small store card from 5 years ago and the late fees were killing me, so I set a tiny automatic payment and it fixed the whole thing, has anyone else found a weird fix like that for a boring money problem?

That's actually genius. Did you have to call the bank to set up such a small auto-pay, or could you just do it online?

Yeah, @hill.andrew, you can totally set that up online.

Oh man, I'm the guy who still mails a paper check. My bank's website scares me, so I just avoid the whole thing. It's a system, I guess.
