You won't be content if it's lower than you think it should be. @K Lin, Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate the comment. I appreciate the free monitoring service even if it doesn't provide an "official" score. It's always nice to have an idea as to what your credit score is, especially since it's free. @Megan, I agree that a deflated score would be better as it pushes you harder to bring it up.

Like your readers suggest, we are not trying to be a FICO clone. We are a completely free credit monitoring service. Our goal is to help consumers better understand how their everyday actions affect their score. With that said, our score is built from the data as everyone else so an excellent score on our system will be an excellent score on others as well. Thanks for the nice write-up.

But I agree with the idea that it's useful for tracking changes in your score (which seem to be occuring when I would expect them to). Plus if it gets people interested, that's a good thing. And I would prefer a deflated score to an inflated score. Mine’s also low.
