It's on the first page of the myFICO report.  "FICO Score Summary" tab.

In the yellow, working toward green.  Should be there when I pay down a few balances.  End of summer, perhaps!!!!

what are the cutoffs for the orange and yellow?  does anyone know?  (yes, embarrassed to say I'm still the red slice of the pie).


Not sure about orange, but yellow (Good) starts at 660.

I'm just happy I'm not red and myfico isn't telling me "girl, you suck" anymore.

I feel your angst, so close yet so far.. I was anxiously awaiting a score bump today from paying down util from 11% to 4% and thus snatchng my piece of the Green pie, got the bump (yay!)  in score to 723 so I'm still in the yellow, guess I can't complain though at least it's still going in the right direction.

Ah - no wonder I didn't find it.  myFICO report is outdated by about a month and I haven't refreshed the report since I'm waiting for a few updates/scorewatch alerts still.  According to my pie chart, I'm in the orange with my little 636 still from April 11

Start: (2-26): EQ 602 (Myfico) TU 579 (Credit Karma) EX 634 FAKO
Current: (7-12): EQ 690(myfico) WalmartTU 696 EX 689 (lender 6-3)
1st Goal: 680 across the board - DONE June 2013!
2nd Goal: 725 across the board

I'm almost in the yellow. This week TU went from 634 to 654 and EQ went from 620 to 653. I enjoyed the bump but I'm still disappointed that I'm still orange. Maybe next month......

I've been trying to decide when to pull the trigger and pull the second report through SW...I was thinking of waiting until I saw another 9 points, or wait a month or two for that last late to get to the 1-year-from-deletion mark....

Re: Oh myFICO...when do I get to be "Very Good"??

Well, my lower utilization and higher credit limit got me 0 points AND I just took a hit for inquiries when I apped for CSP and AMEX BCP.  So, now down 7 points from 720 to 713.

 

Wonder what will happen when my new car loan and CSP start reporting.  I'm worried, think it's going to tank my AAoA.  But, I don't have any immediate needs for credit so should be ok. I'll just garden for a while.  (I was approved for the CSP but am still pending review on AMEX...fingers crossed.)
