Credit Karma lied to me 🥲
Yesterday I was celebrating what I believed to be a 700 credit score, as told by Credit Karma. I shared that I was fiscally irresponsible in my past, and it just goes to show how financially illiterate I still am. I pulled my FICO scores last night and was shocked to see how drastically different they are compared to Credit Karma. I did know CK was an “estimate,” but I feel like what CK shows is a blatant lie, not an estimate. These scores are nowhere NEAR 700. Am I foolish for feeling completely deceived by Credit Karma? I feel totally gut-punched and like I’m scrambling, because I’m trying to buy a car in the next couple months and my REAL credit scores are obviously WAY less impressive than 700 🥲🥲🥲 I’m so sad. I was so proud of myself, and for nothing.
