Yes, this was a bit disappointing also. This was the only real benefit of having a WAMU card, but if you take a look at Juniper they offer a Transunion FICO also. Some here have said that Junipers FICO is enhanced for credit cards, but it there seems to only be a 2-3 point difference from what I see.
That's interesting. I was denied for Juniper last year because of not having long enough credit history. I plan on applying later this year because I really want tht AirTran CC. That would be great to have a FICO along with it. I was reading an article about FICO teaming up with Credit Unions and offering free FICO scores. It seems like if America is truly concerned about the credit crunch and financial education then more companies will adopt this. But then again, FICO is another business like anything else....
Juniper does NOT provide a FICO score. That is a Transrisk score provided by TU. It's most definitely a FAKO. Whether it is close to your other "real" scores is immaterial.

For years my Juni Trans-Risk score has always been 100-150 points lower than my real FICO's and my PFICO (TU of course), it bounces up and down a few points every 4 months or so - no relation that I can see with any reality whatsoever!
