so i been using credit karma mobile app to keep track of my credit score every week and i read some comments about people saying it wasnt 100% accurate. There are 3 credit bureaus, CK only gives u your score from 2 of them (Trans Union and Equifax) so I went and got my Experian report from their website and this what I got

CREDIT KARMA

EXPERIAN

This means my Fico score is 675 (Fico is your middle score [not the average] that most lenders/dealers look at)

I get capital one credit card offers like 3 times a week and i keep throwing them out. Every offer comes with 23% interest after first 6 months even though the spending limit offers keep going up ($1,000-$3,000) and most recently an auto loan offer for up to $35,000 (with 24% interest).

I'm holding off every offer until i get little to no interest, maybe once i hit a fico score of 750 that will be possible just being patient and keeping my balance super low.
 
My credit score dropped about 13 points for using 32% of my credit limit (always have to stay under 30%)...simply didnt pay enough attn...paying down only $17 more wouldve avoided it just simply miscalculated

Still on it tho
