Got my TU08!

So my Walmart card finally arrived in the mail and I enrolled for the free fico. I was suprised to see that my score was at 689! Not sure how accurate this is since I hear most lenders uses TU04? Correct me if I'm wrong. I hope it's not too much of a difference because I'm getting closer and closer to that 700+! lol Smiley Very Happy

TU 746 (10/13)
GOAL: 750+

Awesome!

I'm waiting for my Walmart Discover card to arrive, maybe next week. They only gave me a $500 CL but that's fine because I really only wanted the free monthly TU08 score.

Congrats! I wish I got approved for the discover lol, but its fine GE will grow with me either ways. I only got accepted for $400, but the free TU08 is a nice perk. Smiley Wink

They're so weird, I got $600 with way worse scores and I'm SURE a worse credit profile overall, lol.  I'm also waiting for my GE card to arrive though, maybe my TU08 will shed some light on my situation.

FYI- My TU08 and TU04 seem to be up to 30 or 40 points different sometimes, with TU08 being the higher number.  YMMV of course.

Re: Got my TU08!

TU08 is usually more friendly to small mistakes, and doesn't factor in collections under $100 due to a Hollywood Video class action incident where people with $5 late charges had a tough time trying to buy a house (most were falsely added after they went bankrupt), Fico04 is harsher on the client so most banks prefer to use one that will generate them a lower score so they can find any reason to charge you a subprime rate.
