Does this simulator even work?

Simulator Results

Your current FICO® Score is:

664

Your simulated FICO® score would be in the following range:

704 – 744
Pay Your Bills On Time for 3 Month(s)

Paying your bills on time is a substantial factor affecting your FICO® score. Generally speaking, if you have no negative items on your file, your score will remain fairly stable as you continue to pay your bills on time.

If you have some history of late payments, how recent they occurred is important. The more recently they happened, the more impact they will likely have on your score. As they age, their impact on your score will gradually lessen.

This simulation was based on your making payments on all of your bills for the next 3 months.

Re: Does this simulator even work?

Because that is an entirely different Mortgage percentage rate, and waiting 3 months if this information is "correct" would have huge financial implications. So if it is not correct, how is MyFico allowed to publish this or even charge for incorrect advise?  I have not received 1/3 of this "score" increase over the last month

Re: Does this simulator even work?

It could be correct if you have a derog that is going to age in 3 months to were it either doesn't effect your score as much as it does now or paying down CCC debt.  Please provide more info about your credit profile.

 

The simulator, and in fact FICO scores, are not linear or even continuous for the math majors here.  LOL they are better modeled by catastrophe theory.

I assume I am paying for Myfico to look at these details and put correct numbers in the calculations. All baddies are student loan from 2005-2006 scheduled to fall off. Zero balance through consolidation. 10 hard pulls over two years, 6 within 1 year, 3 positive CC, $4 balance. No collections, no public record. AoAA 12 years oldest account 18?

I'm unsure of this, not 100%, but I thought student loans were an exception to the 7 (or 7.5) year rule.

Alert settings

You will be alerted:
  • Whenever your FICO® score reaches a target score of 665 [ Change ]
  • Whenever one of your accounts has a balance increase larger than 5% [Change ]
  • Whenever one of your accounts has a balance increase larger than $5 [Change ]
  • Whenever one of your accounts shows new activity after being inactive for more than 3 months [ Change ]
  • Whenever a FICO® score change could qualify you for a different interest rate on a 30 year mortgage [ Change ] 
    (For a score of 664, that means you will receive a score alert if your score goes above 679 or below 660.)

Re: Does this simulator even work?

The score simulator for my TU says I could gain at least 50 points after last last derog falls off. It is a 120 day late so depending on how bad your lates were and when they happend, the simulator for your report could be spot on.  What are the alets and when did they happen?
