Purpose of loan:
I am relisting once again, still hoping that I will get funded : )   I keep track of my credit monthly with a service that tracks all three credit bureaus, and my PLUS score with them is 646,  (TransUnion is 649, and Equifax is 648, and Experian is 641), so I am not sure why it's lower on Prosper??  As you can see, I am at the maximum allowed interest for my state, and I really want to build a good history with Prosper and improve my credit overall.  I want to establish a good payment history here as I have with all my creditors over the last seven years.  I have grown up a lot in the last 8 years, and I know I can succeed in the process of getting out of debt for good, as long as I have discipline.  I am so proud of myself for finally paying off my Cash Call loan ($5000 @ 59% interest), and I am soooo excited, that now I want to move on to my credit cards.  I am only applying for a $1000.00 loan at this time so that I can show a successful loan with Prosper and once it is paid off, hopefully I will be able to get a loan big enough to pay off all of my credit card debt at a much better rate.

Please note that I have went from and HR credit grade & 101% usage on bankcards to an E grade & 96% usage on my cards. I am paying the balances down, but it is just taking sooo long, as many of the cards have monthly fees for having them, and the payments split between nine cards are only a little over the minimum.  I have cut all but one card up, so that the available balances will not be used. 


Financial situation:
I have been working with the same company for just under 7 years, my husband has been with his company for 6 years.  We make a good income, and have been on time with ALL our payments for the last seven years.  As you can see, I have 0 delinquent accounts in the last seven years, and I can guarantee that my loan payments will be on time, every month until paid off.   You can ask any questions, personal or otherwise that you would like to.  I am completely open to your inquiries as it is your money and I want you to feel confident in my ability to pay it back.  Thank you for reading!

P.S.  The public record is a bankruptcy that was discharged in 2001.  My son was born in 1999 and he had some very serious health problems that prevented me from going back to work.  He was in and out of the hospital several times in his first couple years, and with only one income and all the debt we incurred, we felt we had no choice but to file and start over.  Since then, I have not had any late payments to any of my creditors!!  Thanks again for looking!
