Fako Score jump, will FICO Follow??

I just got a bunch of alerts from Credit Sesame and Nerd Wallet that my scores have jumped 60-80 points using the fako Vantage Score 3.0. I do have some investigations going on.

 

However, myFico.com Dashboard and Experian.com both show no change, stuck in the low 500's.   Are they about to change? TIA.

No way to know for sure.

 

You say you have some investigations going on... do you mean disputes?  Often accounts under dispute are not factored in by the FICO algorithm (they get ignored) so if these are negative account(s) your score may temporarily increase, but if the dispute doesn't end favorably your score would just return to where it was before the dispute when it's over.
