If it makes you feel better, not many lenders use the Walmart scoring model, which is the TU 08. You just need to find out what your TU 04 score is, which is what more lenders use :smileyhappy:


Barclay's Apple Financing Card ($6400) --- Capital One Cash Rewards World Card ($6000) ---GEMB CareCredit ($5700) --- AU FCU ($6000)--- Walmart ($5000)
