horns Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 Hi allIve been around the board for a couple of years and I HAVE HAD it with myfico.com....WONDERFUL CHARLES in the mortgage forum has finalized a nice mortgage for me and my family...(300K)..and I have "been around the block" when it comes to credit repair. Ive been doing it for almost 3 years and have gone from 510 scores to 650's and 720's.I still have a problem with the accuracy of myfico.com because it does not associate your score with the "pulling" lender. myfico.com would be better if you could pull your scores based on a scenario...for example, the user could choose, i am buying a house and I want to see what my lender scores will be or I am buying a new car and I want to see what "Ford" sees my scores as....I am going to email Ms. Orman and see what she has to say. She has been endorsing myfico.com for 3 years so I would like to pose the "lender" "situational" score question to her and see what she has to say...ILL keep you all posted...

DocDon Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 Good to see you back, Joe, and congrats on the new home! Suze is a shill for Fair Isaac. If you really watch her show, you'll see she actually knows nothing about credit related issues like we discuss here. Have you seen her car commercial? Yeh, she's 'all about the consumer'....

horns Posted March 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 It just kills me when she tells callers that they HAVE to go to myfico .com to seee there score and I have proven by myself 3 times that the myfico.com score is off BIG TIME as compared to the "lenders" score who is pulling your credit...Im going to get in touch with her some how some way....and ask her about thatJoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jq26 Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 All she does is regurgitate basic sh*t like, "balance your checkbook" and "pay down your credit cards". IMO she gives no good information anyway.The best opart is she is a shameless capitalist. While she has the right to charge financially challenged folks $270 for her useless kit, she should cringe when she looks at herself in the mirror.

Corrine Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 My poor mom lives by Sue's word. She told me yesterday that a bad debt can stay on your CR for ten years and that so much as calling a CA restarts the collection clock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jq26 Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 Sadly, Corrine, my mother does too. She thinks Suze is a genius. I got a frantic phone call a few days ago from her telling me Suze was having a "TV special" about building good credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

score booster Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 Before you all bash Suze to death, let me jump in. Although I do respect her knowledge as far as investments and financial planning is concerned, that's where it ends. She needs to STOP giving credit repair advice. I too have heard her advising callers that charge-offs remain for ten years. A few weeks ago she advised some poor woman who was AUTHORIZED USER on a cc that in order to get the cc co. off her back she should either pay them or file bankrupcty! I find it apalling that many people regard ALL her advice as gospel. Many people don't realize that she was once a compulsive credit junky back in the '70's, living beyond her means. She did turn things around and become skilled at money management and investment strategies, but Suze, if you're listening: NO MORE CREDIT REPAIR ADVICE!
