Which Fico is higher? EQ or TU? Enjoy....![]()
Number and type of currently open accounts are the same.
TU would be higher.
Your TU should be higher, but i am guess that it is not. So I will say EQ
Based on what you posted I also say TU because of the age and because EQ hates high util. However, what baddies are reporting, if any?

Congrats! Your guess was the right one.
My current scores are:
TU 601
EQ 648
The only (un)logical reason I can think of might be a different "bucket". The fact that EQ simply deleted seven positiv and old tradelines reduced my AAoA so that I'm in a different (younger) bucket which doesn't penalize my derogatory information as much as on TU.
If this is indeed the case, it would be a perfect example about the sometimes - well - unlogical way your credit-score is determined. I simply don't understand why my report which lacks 7 crucial accounts has a higher score than the other one. And we are not talking about 3 points. So if EQ would list these 7 old and positive TLs, I would be a bigger credit-risk? Hmmm.....makes no sense to me..![]()

I have many baddies on file (2 public records, a judgment and BK), a few collections (although listed on EQ under "accounts") and some IIB- and charge-off accounts with a DOFD about 5 years ago. However, they are no significant differences between the derogatory info reported on TU and EQ.
My util., however, is only at 2%...on both.![]()
