Does Using MyFico hurt my score?

If I sign up to utilize this service, does it hurt my score at all? Every point is important so I can't even lose 5 points right now. Also, is it accurate or a guess and does it pull from all 3 agencies?

 

Thank you!

Nope.   Checking your own credit report or scores, either from MyFICO or anywhere else won't hurt your scores at all.

Also, the scores sold here are FICO scores, which are typically closest to what most creditors and lenders use.

Thank you for your help! Do you know if it pulls from all 3 and is it accurate? It seems that some of the posts I have read sound like it is a guess.

 

Thanks!

MyFICO sells Tranunion and Equifax FICO scores.    Experian no longer offers their FICO scores directly to consumers so there is nowhere to purchase that one.
