Vantage score 4.0

Gotta love their reasoning , my score just updated 773.

 

Reasons :

 

Inquiries ( guilty as charged)

Too many bankcards with high balance  HECK NO I am sitting at 2% utilization 

 

Gotta love scoring , although I don't care about vantage one bit, just find the 2nd reason absurd.

Lol so weird. 

I don't even read the "reasons" section of anything anymore. I tend to take it personally even though it's often kind of garbage.

What's affecting your credit score

 

Too high proportion of accounts recently opened

Lack of real estate secured loan information

Just refreshed mine.

1) Too high proportion of accounts recently opened (totally true)

2) Lack of real estate secured loan information (yep totally true too)


What can you do when you seek all the credit? 🤷‍♂️

One person's credit seeking, is another person's credit diversification.

I get that "Too many bankcards with high balance", but I'm very naughty, I'm at a whopping 9% util.

 

But where do you get your Vantage 4 score, Synchrony? I get mine on both Sync PayPal MC & Lowes. But when Synchrony used Fico 8 it updated monthly with my TU locked. With Vantage 4 I have to unlock my TU, unsubscribe from credit score on Synchrony, and then re-subscribe to get an update. I haven't bothered since November, too much bother for a useless score. I do wish Credit Karma would upgrade to Vantage 4, better for my blood pressure . . . I swear if my CC balances increase by $100 out of $150k+ in credit lines it drops my Vantage 3 score by 10 points.   Smiley Frustrated

Re: Vantage score 4.0

I got my vantage from various synch accounts.

Yeah gotta love CK a slight balance change and boom 10 sometimes more point drop when your utilization hasn’t changed individually or overall. Bogus scores to me 😳
