This doesn't make any sense.

 

I went into the bank on 06/11 to start my refi. They did a pull of all 3 and here's what I got.

 

Experian - 770

Equifax - 788

Transunion - 783

 

I updated both my Transunion and my Equifax on myFico before going in that morning and with today's Experian purchase. Here is what I got.

 

Experian - 815

Equifax - 788

Transunion - 765

 

Why is the Experian score so much higher?

 

 


This confirms that the version of the EQ score used here is the one most often used by mortgage lenders.  The TU here is really obsolete (a FAKO for practical purposes) and not worth buying.   Need more examples of the EX pulls to see if it corresponds to those used by enough lenders.

Is no one else going to jump and buy it? Lol. Sadly I have nothing else to compare it to, even if I did

I looked all over the report it gave me, I can't find out what model it is using.

Awesomeness. However, I'm not inclined to pay $20/report. I wish they would offer all three for $30 or so.

Re: Experian FICO's are back?!

Well that sucks I pulled the trigger and got the EX Fico and it is lower than the score from Experian. 

 

On EX site i was at 655 and just pulled EX Fico here and 617.

 

I am so pissed right now, how is there a 38pt difference???

 

My TU Fico 674 and EQ Fico 686 and now EX Fico 617, that sucks.

I was this close to buying it just a couple minutes ago.  Glad I didn't.  Thanks for the heads up.

The score Experian sells directly is a FAKO.

I have a score from Experian too, they list it as a PLUS Score. Mine shows 771 from Experian, but significantly higher on myFico. Go figure?
