Collections/ MyFico 3B Updates/ Scoring Question

I have 2 baddies (medical). Both hit my credit while insured and after an in office deductible was paid. I had no idea that they were there. Long story short, the bills were sent to my old address. Both are paid and were due to fall off this coming February. I noticed that they are now reporting differently across different credit platforms.

 

Here are the details of each:

 

MyFico 3B ( dated 7/12/2019)

$75 Reporting to TransUnion and Experian

$94 Reporting to Equifax and TransUnion

*But a recent alert says the $96 collection was removed on 9/6/2019. No change to score.

 

Credit Karma

Clean file as of 9/15/2019

 

Experian

Clean file 8/23/2019

 

Credit Sesame dated 8/4/2019

Both still appear ($75 & $94)

 

Do you think the removals will be updated on MyFico when the October 3B is issued? I thought this type of update would be more instant. And shouldn’t I expect to see a score increase?

FICO 8 ignores collections under $100 that’s why you’re not seeing a score change and you won’t on version 8.

Of course you will see it on your next 3B, it was updated afterwards, as you can see from the other platforms.
