Is anyone familiar with this scoring model (Experian PLUS scoring model)? This can be found on your score at freecreditreport.com....How reliable/ credible is it in the eyes of actual lenders? The reason why I'm asking is because on this scoring model my score is 722, but on Equifax it's 620 and Transunion 622. They literally have the exact same information on all reports in terms of credit info, AAOA, etc.....That obviously is a big difference In scores. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

The experian score you speak of is a FAKO. The only place to actually purchase your FICO scores is from myFICO.com
Great! My question was answered. Disregard my new post.

As indicated above it's a FAKO.

Creditors don't use FAKO's to determine whether to approve you or not.

It's a given that different scoring models can produce different scores. Don't expect them to match.
