although it may be true. remember that the walmart score is a tu08 while the ficos here are tu98
my tu08 score like stated above says 743 but here last time it was around 690. eq is steady as well.
all my reports are essentialy the same except for inq's. all have same accounts all same age.
The EQ FICO here is an EQ04, not an EQ98. However, the TU score from here IS a TU98.
Also, the calculations are different and the initial reports are different. Make sure there is not an error or baddie on your low score.

also good to note TU08 is more consumer friendly. isolated instances like 30 day late payment affect your credit reports less, charge off under $100 does not factor into your scores, authorized users have a lessened affect etc.

yeah I know...it seems they would report the debt every other month, until I got it fixed. I had no idea this was going on until the myfico family hipped me to the free walmart TU reports. Boy was I glad I applied for the card. Protecting your credit is a beast and my new obsession.

I'm up 7 points to a 679! Slowly but surely going up each month.
Just checked mine and its at 683 from 678! Yay!
Down 23 points.. sucks..
last month i had a 743, went down to 716 this month...but jumped from 640 in september still good enough to me.
