Re: Lenders see different scores than consumers do

Most posts in this thread have addressed the FICO/FAKO business, but the OP's point about the industry-specific scores hasn't gotten much response. I have to agree with him/her, it's just not right that we can't buy those specialized scores. I can see the value of them for lenders, and wouldn't mind paying for them, but the current situation means you can't contradict the used-car salesman when he says your score is too low. It's unjust.
On a different point raised by some in this thread, I also found the EQ score my mortgage lender got was the same as what's available through myfico. At least 33.3% works right!
