PSECU score

Why is my PSECU credit score around 30 points lower than reported by MyFICO scores?

Starting Score: 656
Current Score: 678 TU 08, 665 EQ MyFico, 698 EX PSECU
Goal Score: 7OO needed for Mortgage application

Re: PSECU score

Do you happen to know which bureau (EQ, TU, EX) your CU uses for its score?

 

Do you know which model it uses?  That could be FICO 8 Classic, FICO 9 Classic, FICO 8 Bankcard Enhanced, or at least half a dozen other possibilities.

 

This link does not seem to answer those questions, so you might have to call the CU to find out:

https://www.psecu.com/fico/

 

Once you know both things, then you'll know which of those dozens of scores you see in your myFICO report to compare it to.

 

When you do that, however, you could still see a very different score.  That's because your CU likely generated its score on a different date then your MF report was pulled.  Because of that, the bureau's report could have changed, and therefore the score could have changed.

Re: PSECU score

PSECU score was pulled today and it's about 30 points lower than all my scores from The scores that are reported on MyFICO. All are pulled around the same time.

Re: PSECU score

Are you saying that the PSECU score and the myFICO report were both pulled today?

Re: PSECU score

PSECU was pulled today. MYFICO updates whenever they see a change, which was yesterday. The only possible change is me paying off credit cards, all and a Macy's account, $5800 and them increasing my limit to $25,000

Re: PSECU score

When was your myFICO 3B report pulled -- ignoring any updates?  I am guessing it was a while ago?
