So I received a Verizon Visa prequalified approval email. So I followed through and applied. I was denied and just received the reason why.
" Lack of real estate secured loan information Average time since accounts opened is too recent Too few bankcards with high credit limits Average time since revolving accounts opened is too recent Number of inquiries on credit report "
Also it says my credit score is 639. Witch is not anywhere near accurate. I have a new credit profile 6 months and some change. I just received my Fico scores last week and was approved for a Amex DG card their report shows my Fico score at 737. Even my Vantage scores on Credit Karma are showing a range of 708-713. All my Fico scores ranges are 713-737. So I dont understand where the hell they pulled this information from. Like are they pulling a report from 2+ months ago or what? If so that is DUMB.
I think they pull Vantage 4? No way I know of to get that score unfortunately. It’s different from Vantage 3 which you get from Credit Karma
Yes, it’s Vantage 4 from TU. The scoring model for that is a bit different than FICO or Vantage 3.
Extremely Influential- Total Credit Usage, Balance and Available Credit.
Highly Influential- Credit Mix and Experience.
Moderately Influential- Payment History.
Less Influential- Age of Credit History.
Less Influential- New Accounts.
In my personal circumstances, my Vantage 4 scores are actually a bit higher than FICO and Vantage 3 because I’ve opened a lot of new accounts in the past year, which Vantage 4 doesn’t really care about. They do love that I have like 100k in available credit lol.
Synchrony is kind of an odd duck for using that scoring model.
My wife is an authorized user on our CC through Synchrony Bank. As an authorized user, they added the information to her credit report within 14 days of being listed. Fast forward 4 years, we ran into issues(covid and loss of employment), and racked up debt on our CC to stay afloat. I don't want her score to be impacted as this is my card and my responsibility. We agreed and removed her as an authorized user. Will synchrony bank remove all history of this card from her credit report like they added it when she was setup as an authorized user? If so, how long?
