Look behind the scenes and check where your score really comes from.
A good credit score is typically 700 and above.
Your credit score is an indicator of how responsibly you use credit and manage debt. Lenders use it to determine whether you can borrow money and the interest rate you’ll be offered.
Depending on the factors impacting your score, it can take anywhere from a few months to a few years. If you’re consistently paying down your debt and making payments, you should see those positive behaviors reflected in your credit score each month.
It’s normal for your score to vary depending on what model you’re looking at, since they may weigh factors differently. The score you see from TransUnion uses the VantageScore® 3.0 model.
You can request your full credit report from TransUnion on their website, or request your free annual credit report from all three credit bureaus at AnnualCreditReport.com.
Positive information and accounts in good standing stay on your credit report for 10 years. Negative marks, like late payments or collections, typically stay on your report for up to 7 years.
