Where do we get an accurate Experian score?

Since Experian is no longer offering a myfico score, where can we get an accurate Experian score?

We can't. Only lenders/creditors can get OUR EX scores. Isn't that wonderful?

Those are not FICO score, but rather FAKO scores. EX took the step not to allow consumers to pull their own FICO score so that they can sell their own PLUS score and the Vantage score, which they heavily invested in.

I use credit expert and get my plus score there.  I assume it's the score that consumers get.

Hmm, I just wonder if it's the same as the Myfico experian score. I'm just gonna try to work on raising my TU and EQ scores and not worry about the Experian. I was told that Experian is usually the highest score anyways. But thanks for your reply.

It isn't the same as the myFICO EX score.

 

It is derived using a different formula.

i know CCCU and my apt.complex used it.  EX never co-operated with my fico anyway.  EQ is the worst for me.
