New Mint credit scoring applet

[Moneyklutz]

Logged in to my Mint account tonight and realized they upgraded the credit scoring applet to include much more info (along the lines of CK) about my EQ report.

Strange part is that it matches perfectly my FICO score number (from here) rather than the CK pretend numbers...

Any one else using Mint seeing this too or is it just happen-chance and circumstance on my part?

Mine's the same for a month now, more data and says I am 773 EQ (I'll take it)

My Mint has accurately tracked one of my EQ FICOs since the start, but I can't remember WHICH FICO.  Not 08.  Maybe 04?  Or one of the many flavors, maybe bank card.  I can't recall but it definitely was nowhere close to CK FAKO and always the same as one of the FICO variants.

I'm not a fan of Mint, I keep my personal finances in Quicken and don't need their bill reminder service and I'm not giving anyone my banking logins. But I have an account for the EQ score as free EQ scores are hard to get, and just logged in and checked out the new score interface, it is nice.

Mint gives me an EQ score of 721 for May, down 3 points from April - new inquiry from joining Penfed in early May, but doesn't include the new Penfed Powercash CC account. I don't know what scoring model they're using, as my CK EQ Vantage score is 710 and my Fico 08 EQ score is 689, but I'll take it!
