Not sure why you listed utilities like Verizon. Comcast and Cingular, Those would be considered credit accounts. I was surprised recently when my home phone thru Verizion suddenly showed on my report after having it for over 10 years, Did not mind as it made my FICO go up. Anyone interested in maintaining a good credit score had better now treat utilities bill payments just like credit card and loan payments
