Re: hmmm fico **bleep**...

Neither and both. There are dozens of different scoring models. Auto dealers may pull a score that is "auto enhanced." They could also be using an older or newer model than the one here. What was the range given on the score they gave you?

Re: hmmm fico **bleep**...

It is still a FICO score.

 

The bankcard-enhanced FICO (the PFICO) has a range of 250-900.  It's still a FICO, because it's generated by a Fair Isaac algorithm.  Classic FICO scores you get here on myFICO do have a range of 300-850, but bankcard- and auto-enhanced scores both have ranges of 250-900.

 

Unless things have changed, again.

Re: hmmm fico **bleep**...

so a 555 score in auto loan is bad  correct?.. only one bank approve dme at the crazy a.p.r of 19%

 

jesus even roadloan approved me for 20k at 18%...   

 

but i see alot of dealers wont work with roadloans because they charge a fee to the dealer..
