Different Fico models produce different scores, 08 tends to discount AUs more and looks at accounts differently from the 04 model.

So the score I had before doesn't matter at all anymore ? It was just deleted ?

No, it's still a valid score, and is still the most popular score for mortgages.  The new score seems to be more preferred by CC companies.

Starting Score: 504
July 2013 score:
EQ FICO 819, TU08 778, EX "806 lender pull 07/26/2013
Goal Score: All Scores 760+, Newest goal 800+
Take the myFICO Fitness Challenge

Current scores after adding $81K in CLs and 2 new cars since July 2013
EQ:809 TU 777 EX 790 Now it's just garden time!

June 2017 update: All scores over 820, just pure gardening now.
