Merrick Bank Free Fico Score

So I just realized that since I have paperless statements they are giving me a free FICO score. Is this a TU score? I'm thinking it is but it's hard to tell. I did see some small words about TU in there I believe. Just checking to see if anyone else noticed this? 

 

Thanks!

All I know is that mine was an insultingly low number and it said in huge letters that I'm in the "not good" category.  Smiley Sad

Re: Merrick Bank Free Fico Score

Just signed up, must be a real FICO score because it says

Which is associated with myFico, I wonder what version they use though? maybe its the same as WalMart??

 

I know it comes from TU

I do not think it's the same as WalMart because last months were off by 40 points between the 2. It may be the same as myfico though, I pulled mine from here last month and it''s closer to the that. Although I had a lender pull also and it was within 4 points of that.  I'm certain it is not the WalMart version at least!

Re: Merrick Bank Free Fico Score

Im pretty sure when i was trying to loggin i saw that it said equifax 8 scoring model. Does that sound right cause i dont know how these different #'r. Also noted that that score is 1 point different than my myfico equifax score from here. I know it does say transunion at the bottom of page. So if this is right im cancelling my subscription here.

I received an offer from Merrick last week.   I did the research on them and they have terrible reviews.

Somebody even started a website about them.  http://www.merrickbanksucks.com/

I can vouch for that...i have been with them for about 8 months....always kept a very low balance (PIF most of times)..i was so anxious to get my first CLI (cuz they are know to give auto CLI pretty often) I received a letter by mail and got excited thinking it was about my CLI i was eagerly anticipating but to my surprise it was a letter warning me that i had opened too many new accounts and that if i kept doing that they would have to close my account...LOL....so my credit limit is still at 650. I was about to close my account with them when i saw the new "Go Score" service they provide and thats the only reason i kept it open.
