- Fico 10 is a general scoring model, based on a current snapshot and traditional data much like Fico 8 and 9. Revolving UT has no memory.
- Fico 10T uses trended data based on the past 24 months of credit usage.
While 10T will allow revolving UT to have a "memory", AZE0 will remain a relevant way for someone to have influence over their scores based on a longer (24 month) history of reported usage. One could still manipulate revolving utilization scoring by playing more of the long game when practicing AZE0 in order to reflect it's full influence on 10T.
JR, are you putting zeros instead of ohs??

I have been waiting for this.
I should do mine to have the card pictures...
True on FICO 10T for trending, but it shows some big banks like US Bank is using FICO 10 which is significantly different than FICO 8. Why else would there be a 30 point difference from my FICO 8 to FICO 10. So FICO 10 has other software tools to see risk assessment. But what is more importantly is that those people that carry over 30% debt are going to be significantly harmed by FICO 10T when big banks start using it. FICO 10T will start showing your credit trends for risk assessment. Everyone should start changing behavior for the FICOT which shows a snapshot over the last couple years of how you managed your credit (trends). Those that let some balances report under 9.5% and then payoff in full will have a higher FICOT.

Very good point, and the very reason some 800+ score applicants are still denied.

Banks need to start updating people on the change.
I honestly agree with it... I know (or maybe I dont) how difficult it is to live. We havent made it easy and banks are praying on people who can just get by, but "getting by" is imo just evil. like 2 pounds on your feet in the middle of the ocean. you can tread water, but for how long? charging overly high interest rates on people who need it or who dont have quite enough savings for emergencies.
Makes me think of the family whose transmission goes out on them and they need to put it on a credit card that is intrest free for 6 months, but if you can't pif in that time you get B**** slapped with an insane interest charge. Evil imo.
I found that on a young dirty profile (odd situation of waiting several years to file my BK7 and then several years later when I began to rebuild I no longer was FICO scoreable for a few months), FICO 10 had a lower ceiling than FICO 8, which already had a lower ceiling than FICO 9. 3.5yrs later, my FIC0 10 scores, while still lower than my FICO 9, are currently higher than FICO 8. 10T are also higher than , with EQ10T, and TU10 also being higher than my EQ9 and TU9. FWIW I do not practice AZEO anymore and probably never will again unless I were applying for a mortgage.
@Humvee wrote:I can confirm that US Bank is now using FICO 10 and in Missouri, pulling from Equifax. This is the first bank I've seen using FICO 10, the newest FICO scores. In case some of you don't know, most banks use FICO 8. I was given an AMEX Platnium (Experian) as well as my bank gave me a $5,000 Visa at 17%. US using FICO 10 is new and they sent me a denial letter based off too many inquiries, too much debt (I'm at 1-2% utilization overall), and too new credit. I read their letter and it was based off Equifax with a FICO 10 score of 676 when all 3 of MyFico scores are in low 700's. FICO 10 is the newest scoring system that looks over your history of credit more which mean "trends". In 2022, I carried a balance of over 30% on a couple cards. Now I pay in full, so my FICO 10 will only improve with that trend showing only 1-2% credit utilization. I suspect I was denied because of having 7 inquires (some auto) over past 12 months and a couple new trade lines. BUT, seeing the lower FICO 10 score may be from my trends over the past 4-5 years. Anyone can do the AZEO method for FICO 8, but I doubt it will work on the new FICO 10 (Trends).
Thanks for the DP @Humvee.
US Bank has been on FICO 10 thru EQF for Florida apps since Nov 2024.
I wish they'd use fico10 rather than the big turd.
