: My Experian Experience

I just signed up for my Experian credit score and account. For the main area to search about your credit accounts, I actually like this site the best out of the 3. This also gives you a chance to order the other two, transunion and equifax. Also it looks like it’s connected maybe to freecreditreport.com Experian ended up being my middle score, it was pretty close to my Equifax and quite a bit higher than my TransUnion. It looks like it has a monthly plus score tracker that updates each month on it’s own. I should note that these members areas say that when you pull your own credit it’s considered a “soft pull” and it doesn’t affect your credit score.

In the main area, here is kind of the categories it shows:

CREDIT PROFILE
Percentage of credit currently available
Satisfactory accounts
Now delinquent/derogatory accounts
Was delinquent/derogatory accounts
Public records
Number of inquiries

DEBT PROFILE
Real Estate debt (mortgages)
Revolving debt (bank and retail cards)
Installment debt (fixed payment loans)
Other debt
Collection debt
Your Approximate Total Debt

There is a score illustrator which will tell you how your score could be adjusted if you were to do certain things. They have add on’s upsells on how to better protect your children also in their account area. All of this is in the account summary area as of now.

The Credit Center tab will let you view mostly everything, I like this part, it’s very easy to understand. I just click view current credit report. Here are the tabs in this area that show you everthing you need to know:

Personal Profile
Credit Summary
Public Records
Credit Inquiries
Account History
Credit Score

It will show you real estate, revolving, installment, other accounts, any collections, etc. I find that the credit history part on Experian is very easy to read. At the time of this writing it reads as Experian having a credit scoring system of 330 to 830. There credit report guide says this:

Some statistics about the score distribution (percentiles):

  • 15% of the US population is below 575
  • 35% of the US population is below 675
  • 50% of the US population is below 724
  • 70% of the US population is below 757
  • 90% of the US population is below 778

This is a recommended site to navigate. Years ago I use to check my credit once every couple of years, but now that I know more about credit I think it’s worth it to pay to stay on monthly service, or at least for a little while, keeping in control of your credit score, and managing your credit is very important and the $9.95 or less they charge isn’t that much.
