Online Credit Scores

Some financial institutions found on the Internet may offer online credit scores. This may be enticing since knowing your credit score can help you determine if you will be able to get a loan, credit card or some other financial product. Remember that your credit score will be from one of the three credit reporting agencies and the information they have may vary. Your credit score will vary for each credit bureau because of the different information that may be reported on each, as well as the fact that they each use a different formula.
