Lenders use one of several different FICO model, the only one for consumer use are the mortgage scoreHTH

Do I have to pay $15.95 EACH to myfico for TU and EX to get them and know they're correct?? Or will they be?Nope, you PAID Experian to give you the Experian plus score and that's what they gave you. They are trying to take market share away from FICO but so far haven't had much luck. I know several companies pull an Experian Amex etc. Don't know that they are opulling info from experian but using the FICO model or using the vantage score.It may be catching on, I have noticed that some of my card who used to report to Equifax first are now reporting to Experian first.
