My Husband was approved for a Verizon Wireless account tonight. The rep said he needed a 570, and that they would pull TU. Thinking that his score was about 610, we went ahead....Then found out that his TU Beacon score is 657!!! This is before the boosts I am expecting for our new accounts. TU sent his score recently and it said 611! Obviously we don't get the same score the creditor gets. Now if I could just get the other two reports cleaned up....
Verizon last week pulled TU for me and approved with score in the low 500's. I didn't qualify for free phone but I got a real plan (no pre-paid).
Verizon approved me a couple of weeks ago. They pulled my Equifax report. No deposit, however I had to pay for the phone. $39.99 for the phone that I bought, which is significantly lower than if I would have had to go prepay. I got approved for 5 phones. My EQ score was 513.
