i.e. when you take out a loan.
This is the key difference. So far none of the free credit scores I've been receiving match the number pulled when applying for a loan.
- scarface74 7y agoMany credit card companies do give you your real FICO score monthly. But I find everything else about Credit Karma well worth the tradeoff - free access to two of your credit reports, a summary of all of your debt (without entering your bank credentials into random third party services), credit alerts etc. It’s not really privacy invasive. Lenders already have the ability to get the same summary of your credit information without your consent.
- ChuckMcM 7y agoThis. My main credit card offers this as a service (check your credit score every 30 days) and my experience has been that its the same number people who want to check on my credit worthiness get when they inquire (sample set 3 car purchases, two type specific credit card applications)
