Re: Cap1 CreditWise VS to Fico Change Notice

Just checked and I'm now on Fico8. Some things I briefly noticed:

 

- Activity history only displays dates 2/26/25, 3/28/25, 4/16/25 - with scores that appear retroactively Fico. Years & months of Vantage are gone.

 

- Simulator doesn't have options for increased balances, new inquiries, new personal loans, card closures, limit decreases. Simulator does have options for decreased balances, new auto/mortgage loans, new cards, limit increases.

 

- The impacts to score section is gone.

 

*Edit to add that a few minutes ago I received an email from  Cap1:

It’s here! Sign in to your CreditWise account to view your FICO Score 8.

Saw this tidbit in the "about your score" section...

Re: Creditwise by CoF going to Fico

Thanks for the heads up. I rushed right over there but I didn't have the notification for this scoring change. It's a worthwhile change, since we can get Vantage scores in so many places.
