i have never seen one that does in its entirety.
Interesting. If you get a chance, please outline an example(s) of a difference. Is it more SP inquiries? More detailed reporting history? DOFD? (on-line EX / TU versions don't show that explicitly) ... etc.

I honestly don't know how "good" the FICO scores we get are when put up against what the lenders use - but this is a great forum to debate that. Let's start with a report I found from Consumer Reports:

Here's and example of how close myFICO score was to my lender pull within about a 20 day window:
Lender Pull (06/10/2014): EXP: 674/EQ: 658/TU: 652
myFICO Score 08 (05/21/2014): EXP: 680/EQ: 684/TU: 665
If you were looking for a mortgage from the lender then you compared the wrong score to your lender score. If you pull the 3B report here you will see mortgage scores, bankcard scores, auto enhanced scores along with your FICO 08 scores.
So compare apples to apples eg morgage scores to mortgage scores and so on.
Having said that, you would be better off just concentrating on the actual tradeline information and the scores will take care of themselves. Looking at scores from free sources is futile IMO. Why look at a measurement that has no empirical value?

When I purchase the TU report only ($11.50), I see this on tradelines that are closed and the drop off timer has begun (ex: collections, closed OC accounts). I haven't seen it on the daily free reports that come with the EQ subscription (or Experian's either)
