Your credit score available online! If you're dying to know how attractive your credit looks to lenders, your score is a click away on the Internet. Known in the industry as a FICO score, this three-didit number is a snapshot of your creditworthiness. It helps determine if you qualify for mortgages, car loans, even credit cards. Until recently only lenders had access to the scores... consumers can get their score and credit report from the credit-reporting agency Equifax at www.equifax.com, or from its partner, Fair, Issac & Co., at www.myfico.com. |
