Equifax continues to offer FICO despite Experian dropping the popular score
February 18th, 2009 - Posted by Joe
Equifax will continue to sell FICO scores according to a statement by a senior official at the credit bureau. This affirmation comes just a few days after Experian announced it would no longer be making FICO scores available to consumers.
According to Steve Ely, president of Equifax's Personal Information Solutions subsidiary:
"We remain committed to empowering consumers to take charge of their credit by continuing to deliver innovative products — including the FICO score — that enable consumers to understand their personal credit information, protect their identity, and maximize their financial well-being".
We reported earlier this month that Experian would no longer be offering the FICO score as of last Friday February 13, 2009.
