Besides that, the three CRAs have different scoring algorithms, so the scores wouldn't be identical, even if the information was reported identically across the three bureaus.
ByrdMan--Is there actually a different algorithm used with each CRA? I know this is obviously true for FAKOs, but I thought FICO actually used the same algorithm with each CRA and that it was nothing other than the report content that caused the scores to be different from one to the next. I have been wondering about this for a while.

There is a unique algorithm for each CRA.
