FICO-9 Scores are wrong

Amtote — Thu, 01 Jun 2017 03:21:52 GMT

I just bought a 3B report and all the FICO-9 scores are wrong. Of the reasons given:

You have a serious delinquency (60 days past due or greater) or derogatory indicator on your credit report.

(jWrong, I have no late payments)

You have few accounts that are in good standing.

(I have many, all in good standing).

It is completely contradictory to my FICO 8 scores of 780/773/769 which also state that I have no late payments and all my accounts are in good standing.

Please contact our support center for additional guidance. The FICO Score 9 and FICO Score 8 use different formulas, so your scores will be different. You can read more about it here: http://myfico.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/514/kw/black%20market

"Too few accounts in good standing" can relate to having some NEW accounts. How many accounts do you have that are less than 12 months old?

As for the derogatory indicator, do you have any public records, bankruptcies, collections or consumer finance account loans reporting?

Lots of people, including myself, are seeing that on our FICO 09 scores when there are no late payments and scores over 800. Not sure why but certinly doesn't indicate that there is anything derogatory on your reports.

I agree! I have applied for credit recently and gotten approved...until I received a letter denying me for a store card indicating my credit score was 611. I knew that was correct because I manage my scores regularly--so I started logging in and checking them again.
My scores on all other sites including Experian's 3 for 1 that I subscribe to, American Express' My Credit Guide and Credit Sesame all have similar or identical Fico 8 scores 689/702/698 (highest score is with Transunion, which has historically always been the most accurate reporting agency). When I checked Fico 9 my scores were 564/611/592 -- **bleep**?! And some lenders have began using Fico 9 without any regards to if this crap is accurate or not.

Contact your support for what? Why are the scores so drastically different? I know you've got to be hearing this feedback from numerous consumers. I want to know how to make lenders aware of this huge difference in scoring results.

June 1st my AoYA aged 1 year old and my FICO8 scores went up 20-25 points accross the board. However, my FICO9 scores dropped an average of 15 points each. All non FICO9 models wet up and all FICO9 models went down

In addition, my EX09 marker states

Too many inquiries last 12 months

FICO® Scores look at the number of times a person applies for credit, since people who are actively seeking credit tend to pose more of a risk to lenders than those who are not. Your FICO® Score was impacted due to the number of applications for credit, or credit inquiries, within the last 12 months.

At that time 6/1/2019, I had only one HP inquiry on my EX file ( from 6/8/2018 )

None. I'll repeat, there is nothing...NOTHING in my credit report that indicates ANY of the factors that FICO-9 states.

Obviously, if I had what FICO-9 states as "reasons" like 60 days late, I would expect the scores to be drasitically lower. But that is not the case.

Re: FICO-9 Scores are wrong

Exactly. Showing 60 days late when there is no late payment.

Right! All they want to do is give you some bs information about your history. Doesn’t FICO 8 have the same information??? So AGAIN—why is FICO 9 so dramatically different for the worse?
