Don't mean to be that new guy, but I'll be him in this post....bought the $1 score from experian, noted that it was a FICO 8...accurate? thanks.
A FICO 8 is a FICO 8. All scores are accurate but only for their own models. In other words, you cannot use a score generated by one model to determine a score generated by another model -- even if both models are FICO's. A FICO 8 and, for example, a FICO 8 Bankcard will produce different scores. You should always expect different algorithms to produce different results. Sometimes models can be coindentally close or the same but keep mind that coincidental and causal are not the same thing.
Don't overlook prior discussions on scoers as well as the Understanding FICO Scoring subforum and its stickies.
