FICO EX scores are not available to counsumers. The only way you might find out what your FICO EX score is if you apply for credit and the lender pulls EX and they share your score with you.

thanks for the info,,,,that is what i was afraid of!!

it makes no sense for them to not offer that anymore.....ugghh...that drives me crazy....how are we supposed to know?

We're all upset by this. I try to avoid doing business with lenders, banks and CCCs who are EX lovers. This is how you punish them.

They decided to pull this crap and stop selling it as of 2/14/2009. It was posted all over the board and many threads where people were absolutely outraged about it, including myself, and much has been done on it in the financial and credit news too.

As of 3 weeks ago, you can still receive your EX FICO from a CU in PA called PSECU. You'd pretty much have to live there to qualify and I don't know what form you'd receive that score (e.g. via a report, monthly blip, whatever). AFAIK, they are still offering this; they were after EX took this action.

Indeed! I'm in the middle of a mortgager right now, but after that I will not apply for anything that I know pulls EX.

i remb when they stopped offering it on myfico....i just did not know if they decided to offer it on their own....but it still looks like they are barring consumers from seeing it....makes no sense.

 

why can't they offer the real EX FICO scores on sites that they own....that is what gets me!!

Because they developed their own score. EX had to pay to access FICO's formula. Since they created their own, they wouldn't have to pay anymore for consumer self-access and they can generate extra money by selling their scores to us via sites like freecreditreport.com, CCT, CreditExpert, and so on.

 

Even if FICO gave away the formula (stupid thing to do), they still wouldn't pass it along to us because they'd lose out on that revenue from the PLUS score.
