Bad Item Removed - Score Didn't Change!

My last bad item from Transunion was removed, leaving me with 0 baddies and no lates.

 

My vantage was 720 with the baddie and remains 720 with it gone.

 

Baddie had virtually no age (6 months).

 

Is this normal?

Re: Bad Item Removed - Score Didn't Change!

You are talking about a FAKO score ~ these scores have their own scoring formulas and do not behave like FICO scores much of the time.

I would recommend pulling your FICO score to see where you really stand.

I agree with pizzadude.

 

My Vantage score went up 20 points in the last couple months but my Transcore has not moved.

 

I know they're both FAKOs but basically one has no correlation with another.

I would also ignore any advice that a FAKO score provider tells you to im porove your FAKO score.  Unless it is paying down CC debt and paying on time that is.
