Re: Discover Card Fico Score

MyFico has a different scoring TU model 

Discover,Barclay,Walmart all use the same TU model TU08 which is a newer model

 

Thus you may see different scores but both models are true Fico's

 

Most mortgage companies use the MyFico model

 

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

@unc0mm0n1 do you know when the Walmart score was pulled ...that could be the difference depending on your utilization.  


My util has never been above 5% and it's normally below 3%. I'm talking about a discover fico t a discover ficoDecember Fico.png

 

It's a one month difference, yet my score went up by nearly 50 points. The only difference is I added a Citi CC account. Util still about 3% as usual. Just doesn't make any sense. But myjourney said in a different thread that sometime credit cards start you off with the wrong card opening date, that seems like a reasonable explanation. unfortunately she said the boost only lasts for a month Smiley Sad

MJ is a He LolSmiley LOL

And I've only seen Barclay do the year thing Lol

So maybe your at the point in your credit where everything looks good and you were rewarded ...It does happen 

Hit the magic AAOA 

Perfect number of TL's 

Right number of INQ's 

Perfect history to date 

Perfect UTL

Bottom line enjoy the scoring bump somewhere along the lines you deserve it.

I don't know why I thought you were a woman this entire time. Sorry, but thanks for the kind words. I'll let you know if my CS keeps the 50 point jump!

Re: Discover Card Fico Score

Just got my TU FICO on my Discover IT statement. I guess this is also an '08 score?

Re: Discover Card Fico Score

Is this only for the Discover IT cards? How about other Discover cards?
