Confused over score!

TU score says 631 but was denied CC from GECB bank based on a 408 score??? I don't understand how we are seeing two different things.

Re: Confused over score!

Is that TU score from here? I suspect either a FAKO or an enhanced FICO. There are dozens of scoring models and it can sometimes be hard to tell which model was used.



|| Barclaycard Rewards Visa $5500 || AMEX BCE $2000 || Discover IT $3000 || Amazon Rewards Visa $1800 ||
|| Chase Freedom $2700 || CSP $5000 || Chase Marriott Premier $7500 || Sallie Mae MC $3800 ||

FICO Scores: EX 752 (3/13/13) || EQ 782 (10/4/13) || TU 724 (1/18/13)

Welcome to the forum 

On the letter you received if it didn't state fico then it was an internal score with GE

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Re: Confused over score!

Then like said above it is likely a GE scoring model. Did it happen to say the range the score could be?



|| Barclaycard Rewards Visa $5500 || AMEX BCE $2000 || Discover IT $3000 || Amazon Rewards Visa $1800 ||
|| Chase Freedom $2700 || CSP $5000 || Chase Marriott Premier $7500 || Sallie Mae MC $3800 ||

FICO Scores: EX 752 (3/13/13) || EQ 782 (10/4/13) || TU 724 (1/18/13)

Which score are you talking about the score from here is a true fico however there are also other models? 

If you saw the 408 score on the letter this is the score we are talking about
