Credit Score vs. FICO Score????

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I just recently went to all three credit bureaus and my credit score was much higher than my FICO score is indicating. Is this possible that the bureaus may have a different score than my FICO score???

Thanks

Hi meinga, welcome to the forum!

The scores you get directly from the credit reporting agencies are called FAKO scores, as no lender uses them when looking at someone's credit application.

The FICO score is used by 90% of the nations lenders'. So it's really the only score that matters.

Much can be learned in the Credit Education tab in the menu bar.
