Only when the last tree has died, the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realise that we cannot eat money.

Your credit rating won't be 100% until the BR debts fall off your credit history 6 yrs after you declared BR but it doesn't do any harm to improve it as much as you can in the meantime.
