I thought installment loans were not included in utilization?  If this were the case, wouldn't a mortage put everyone at a huge utilization?

OP, I found they (and other EX-based services like CCT, FCR, and others) alerted about 2-3 days after the event occurred. It's not instant.

 

I also found their FAKO score (PLUS) doesn't update daily either, especially the EX PLUS score. Not like I should be following them anyway.

FAKOs like the PLUS score factor in installment and CC balances differently. Per FICO, installment util is virtually ignored.

Re: Pretty disappointed in USAA CMS

Pulled my reports from USAA again today and really gave my INQ a lookover, because I knew there were many.  Thankfully only 2 are within that 12 month window, but starting last month and continuing through november, all the 2 year old ones continue to fall off completely.

5/2012: 560 credit scores across the board
12/2014: 750+
3/2017: 780+
11/2019: 833
2/2023: Experian via Chase United Explorer CC pull - 891

I have USAA CMS. Where do you go to pull your reports?


USAA.  You can pull daily with them, and I rarely miss a day.


Dang, jimbo831. I'm glad I'm not the only one. Seems I can't let a day go by without hitting that refresh button.  Smiley Indifferent
