| Mar 12, 2015 at 16:28 | comment | added | dg99 | +1 I use MyFico to monitor my credit score/reports. When I initially learned about it (years ago), it was marketed as the only service that provides your "real" FICO score. In the years since that time I've learned that while that's better than some scores, there's no such thing as an absolute score. Nonetheless the service is fairly cheap and convenient, so I've kept it (more for the monitoring service than for any sense of "real"-ness). | |

| Mar 11, 2015 at 21:23 | comment | added | xiaomy | @Mehrdad credit.mint.com footnote says the score is based on a proprietary model from Equifax, hence FAKO. Rule of thumb - if it doesn't say FICO, it's probably a FAKO. | |
| Mar 11, 2015 at 21:18 | comment | added | user541686 | +1 but do you have any source explaining on what kind of score is given by Mint? (How do you know it's not a FICO score?) | |
