Hi guys,
My first account finally hit the 6th month mark which is an auto loan. I signed up for trial at CCT for $1 to see where I'm at. I want to make sure CCT is FICO 08 because relatively close to CK. These aren't great scores
Also, since EX doesn't have a score yet. Does that I don't have a fico score yet?
Auto loan does report to EX.
Thanks guys
CCT Scores
EX: No Score TU: 571 EQ:557
CK Scores: (EX score is from Experian site)
EX: No Score TU: 562 EQ:553
EX Report: no Installment, 2 Credit Card (Disco Secured and Credit One), Fingerhut (graduated Fresh start but not reporting as revolving yet)
Baddies 4 judgments, no collections
EQ Report: 1 Installment, 2 Credit Card (Disco Secured and Credit One), Fingerhut (graduated Fresh start but not reporting as revolving yet)
Baddies 3 judgments, 7 collections (medical)
TU Report: 1 Installment, 2 Credit Card (Disco Secured and Credit One), Fingerhut (graduated Fresh start but not reporting as revolving yet)
Baddies 5 judgments, 6 collections (medical)
CCT provides FICO 08 scores. CK uses the VantageScore 3.0 model.
If your scores are similar, that's simply a coincidence. Some people report these scores being relatively close while others will say they are off 50, even 100 points or more. Definitely continue to monitor those FICO 08's with those $1 CCT trials from time to time and watch them grow.
Thanks for the reply Brutal!
I have one more question, I'm sure I'm doing the math right lol
On my Experian report I don't have a score but my Discover Secured was opened November 29. EX reports it as 11/01/2017. Its April so shouldn't I have score with EX as well or do I count the report date?
If I count from date opened that would be 6 months
EX
11/01/16
12/01/16
01/01/17
02/01/17
03/01/17
04/01/17
Actual Date opened? So I wait til May

Thanks again!!
I don't know the answer to this for sure, as I've heard 6 months from some people and 7 months from others. If it is 6 months, you have to count the full months I think, so the last month you listed was the start of the 6th month... so perhaps you have to consider 6 complete months. I'm sure someone else will answer this more solidly for you though.

I think is 6 full months (or close to it), you have 5 months (reported date) and a few days for the 6th month (Today is the 7th day). I think you will get a score by the end of this month. Good luck.
