A new website called Credit Karma offers free credit scores to consumers. Finding your credit score is easier with the financial bill put into law. You are able to see your credit report that lenders use easily with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act in place. If you know your credit score, you are able to stay away from getting turned down. Websites like Credit Karma offer to make your credit score accessible for free anytime, as often as you would like to check on it.
Advertisement with Credit Karma
Credit Karma gets to be free because of all the advertising on it. That means it won’t try and make you pay for credit score. Consumer Commentary reports that Credit.com offers a comparable free service. Credit Karma will give a different grade depending on more categories than credit.com. However, credit.com offers a range for various different types of credit scores. Credit Karma only offers one score directly from one of the reporting bureaus that isn’t a FICO Score.
Will my credit be fixable with the Credit Karma score?
When trying to work on credit repair, Credit Karma may not help you all that much. Mymoneyblog.com reports that the score isn’t a FICO score. The Credit Karma score can be a “FICO clone” ranging from 300 to 900. The FICO range is 300 to 850. Credit Karma, which says it pulls data from Experian, Equifax and Transunion, doesn’t say which bureau supplied the data your credit score is depending upon. Plus, you only get your credit score, not who’s pulling your credit, how often they’re doing it or details about your existing credit lines.
Can I really get my credit score free?
Credit Karma and credit.com can be very helpful when trying to build or repair your credit. In this economy, it is much more useful to get free data than to pay $ 89.95 a year for FICO’s Score Watch. Free credit info is also available at the government-sponsored credit site AnnualCreditReport.com. It shows you what your credit score is affected by although it won’t give you a number for a credit score. Freecreditreport.com and creditreport.com should be avoided. They bill your credit card $ 14.95 a month although they advertise to be a free company.
