TU08 is usually more friendly to small mistakes, and doesn't factor in collections under $100 due to a Hollywood Video class action incident where people with $5 late charges had a tough time trying to buy a house (most were falsely added after they went bankrupt), Fico04 is harsher on the client so most banks prefer to use one that will generate them a lower score so they can find any reason to charge you a subprime rate.
This is good info, thank you. The TU we get from QM, how relevant is that as far as what banks use?
