If not all creditors report to all 3 agencies, is it possible to have a great score even with bad debt? |
If I had a few credit cards that didn't report to experian, and did to lets say the other two, is it possible that even with bad debt/histories, etc, one agency can list you with a great credit score while the others have you lower? Also, if that's the case, then isn't that saying you can technically get away with bad credit, as long as it doesn't get reported? My TransUnion score is 666, Equifax at 675 and experian at 768, or something like that. It's just so different, and I have absolutely no idea where I stand. Also, I guess it's foolish to just establish credit history, if you don't know that those creditors are reporting to all 3, or even reporting at all isn't it? That feels like you're being ripped off at least establishing a credit score, but then again it might come in handy if you're delinquent, or went bankrupt, and those creditors haven't reported. What's the deal, can we really get away with things if they're not reported, or will the agencies catch on? Some companies dont report to all 3 bureaus. Thats just life. The agencys rate things differently in their algorithms. Your scores are actually very good. But I have seen some people that have 700 scores on 2 of them and 500 on the last one. Thats why most companies will take the middle. It is possible to get the other bureaus to add what you want. You just need to provide proof ect. But with your scores I dont see why its that important. You can contact land america and they have a program that is called rapid rescore. It takes them about a week and they will go to the credit bureaus and update your credit. Its 25 dollars per trade line per credit bureau. I dont know if you can directly deal with them, you might need to call your local mortgage broker to help you with this. So you know you can do this yourself for free it just takes longer. Just contact the agencies you feel that your score is low on and have them add the items you think will help your credit.

Finance Manager for over 7-years. There is no requirement that any creditor report to all three agencies, or to ANY agency, for that matter. That is one of the reasons that you do not have identical scores between all three. However, if you want to obtain a substantial loan, expect that the creditor-to-be may run a credit check at more than one of the agencies. Some sources only run one credit check, but most run more than one to catch any discrepancies between the reporting agencies. Experian typically has the most errors on it; in your case, the errors are helping you.
