While the reasons may vary, it comes down to the fact that one CRA might show a persons score or history being better and thus they are able to get what they want.Whether it is missing data or a formula difference, many people here lare helped by this. Myself included.Yes it costs more for us to get all our info but the difference between a FICO score of say 722 and 756 when say 4 points are added to it could make a world of diffrence in a car loan or a CC or mortgage.I never liked single point of failures.

Let me pick a bank who uses the CRA that has the most good/least bad info on me. And of course that bank then gives me a loan thinking that I have a 756 when in all honesty, I'm a 722 or even lower.
