I have come accustomed to using myFico to review my Trans Union and Equifax reports and scores. Mainly because I can get my Fico score here. When I look at my Equifax report that I get from myFico, it is as it should be. There are no errors, everything is correct.
I am having an issue which prompted me to retain an attorney in regards to Experian. The attorney advised me to pull my credit files from Annual Credit Report. I pulled Equifax to discover that there are 4 additional accounts listed (and of course negative).
I checked my Equifax report today on myFico as well as Annual credit report today. How can I have 2 different versions from Equifax?
Something to be aware of, there are multiple versions of Equifax. The version here at MyFico is Beacon 5.0. There is also a Beacon 9.0 version that more and more lenders are using, and it could be that annualcreditreport.com is using the newer version, or maybe even a completely different version.
I recently got an updated EQ score and it was Beacon 9.0. Scoring was somewhat higher than from here. Didn't get a copy of the actual report, though; just the score.
