credit score after debt relief 9

https://thoughtminty.com/s/o5nEPpNqaZRKEERZARcMt

After I settled some old debts through a relief program, my credit score took a temporary dip, but surprisingly it rebounded within a year. The key was avoiding new credit and keeping up with my remaining payments. Now I'm seeing steady improvement, though it's not back to where it was before the financial trouble.
