EXPERIAN SCORE

Where can I obtain a fico experian score? or a fako score that would be close to one a lender will pull?

It's pretty difficult. You either have to get it from a creditor who pulls EX or you can join the credit union in PA that gives out monthly EX scores ( PSECU ? ).

AMEX typically pulls EX for their charge cards, also several others do depending on where you reside.

There is no such thing. It's impossible to compare FAKO's to FICO's. They often will move in opposite directions in reaction to changes in your credit profile.

There are some who post that a certain FAKO is "close" to a FICO score but that is purely coincidental. Relying on any FAKO for accuarcy is an exercise in futility.

Thanks for the information. I am working hard on my cr and I was just curious on how my score looked after my LO suggested I take care of some items.

If you get your TU and EQ scores here and a copy of all 3 CRs you should be in good shape to know what is going on. I would recommend a good CMS program like Score Watch here and or True Credit (TU).
