That's a FAKO score.. The highest FICO score is 850..

I'd use www.myfico.com and use coupon code CPPSAVINGS to find your true score..

That's what I thought. I thought I was seeing things for a second!

My FICO score was 810 but the 990 from transunion was nice .

i ran my yearly free credit reports from annualcreditreport.com. To get scores from there cost about half of myfico.com

How much? Link? I could be wrong but doesn't that site just redirect you to the credit agencies? In which you'd have to purchase the "scores" separately from each agency.. ?



I believe Equifax is the only agency that uses a true FICO score.

Yeah they just take some basic information and then redirect to the other sites. Equifax was the only one that gave a FICO score. That was I believe $8.
The other two agencies were around $7 each.

I can't find a link that shows details on pricing and none of them emailed me a receipt. As soon as they post to my CC card I'll cut/paste the prices here.

It's ok.. It's like $12 each for a full credit report and true FICO score from MyFico. I'll probably just stick with that..

Now that I bought the townhouse I probably won't check them as often anyways.. I was addicted there for awhile


And just FYI if anyone is looking for a good credit forum www.creditboards.com has a TON of info covering just about everything credit wise..
