PS - It says the FICO Score Simulator is not available for Experian (http://www.myfico.com/Products/FICOOne/Description.aspx)
And it also says
*Positive factors, reflecting areas of your credit behavior that are helping your FICO score, are not currently available with the FICO report based on Experian data.
That doesnt mean they are not included in your score. it just means that they are not providing you with additional bullet points with written statements decribing the positive aspects of your report which are most effecting your score.

That's right in line with my EQ and TU FICOs, and now I can say offically that I have achieved my FICO goal for the year -- all FICO scores 740+.
FWIW, my Experian Plus score is 712 and my CS score is 725. I'm thrilled to see that my FICO is higher than my FAKOs.
Woohoo! Grats. My FICOs are 724,725, and 726 lol sooo VERY comparable. My FICOs are higher than my FAKOs as well.
I plucked down the 20 bucks and ordered mine. Wishing I didn't.
I don't get it. 612 today. Mortgage lender pulled me on April 22 and I was at 692. The only difference is that my mortgage is now reporting and a new credit card. 2 new inq. Would that really make my score drop 80 pts? WOW, how long to get those points back?
Told me what was bringing my score down.
1. Public record. I have NO public record. I do have two paid medical collections from 2008. Those are my only baddies.
2. Balance on installments are high compared to original amount. Granted that is true. I haven't made a mortgage payment yet although it is reporting.
3. New accounts. Double wammy here since the mortgage is new.
4. Credit card balances are too high. Report shows $15 owned on a $1000 cli. Hmmmm.
@Kathy
Hmm does it have the collections under the public records section? Maybe you should check that something wasn't mistakenly added to your credit report, or an old baddie reappearing?
Yay!!! Thanks for posting! Just checked mine - 727. Not bad.
I just pulled mine. PlusScore from Experian.com earlier today was 706. myFICO socre is 735. Making progress
Just tried to buy mine and got this error:

o.0; you don't exist
My Fako on EX is 719 and Fico is 667, kinda sucks but i have plenty time to garden to give all these new cards a chance to grow all at the same rate so hopefully that will be good......
This is great to know. I just recently got my scores from a mortgage app. but I will be checking all 3 again in a couple of months.
