Free Credit Report dot com vs. my fico score

I have been paying free credit report for a couple of years now, and discover I have a much better FICO score with this service.  I think this is higher per month, but the value is better.  Any opinions?  My trial ends on July 5.  Thank you!!!

Re: Free Credit Report dot com vs. my fico score

     It's been a matter of personal debate.  I will just put it this way.  When I apply for credit, they send me notification that the approval is based off my FICO score.  I've never seen any lender use a freecreditreport.com score.

Starting Score: 504
July 2013 score:
EQ FICO 819, TU08 778, EX "806 lender pull 07/26/2013
Goal Score: All Scores 760+, Newest goal 800+

Current scores after adding $81K in CLs and 2 new cars since July 2013
EQ:809 TU 777 EX 790 Now it's just garden time!

June 2017 update: All scores over 820, just pure gardening now.

Re: Free Credit Report dot com vs. my fico score

Is there only one service the "score watch"?  I saw another product called 'my fico' for $4.95 a month.  I suppose I should direct this to My Fico but if anyone knows, would appreciate answers before I commit.
