You know you could have just called your credit card company and gotten that late payment removed, right? I've missed one payment in my life because I changed banks and forgot to switch to the new bank for autopay. Called the credit company and they removed my late payment and reset the counter back to zero.

I did, and it was too late. It was with my credit union that I liked, but them not helping me out irked me after 13 years of banking, I moved all my money out the next day.
