They are not suppose to do that

He's referring to the fact that the Experian score used to not be available for the general public to buy.
I don't recall that but that's interesting. I wish myfico would let me pull up a history of older reports. Wonder what I used to pay for prior to that date?

Not true. On the last several credit pulls I've had done..the karma score has always been somewhere in the middle of the 3 'official' scores I've been sent through the mail.
Everybody will have a different result. The scoring model for CreditKarma weights things differently than the FICO models (which most lenders use for granting credit). The range of scores is also different. My TransUnion FICO score is consistently about 40-50 points higher than my CreditKarma score which also comes from TransUnion.

My Credit Karma score was much lower than the score I was told when I purchased my last car. It was over 800, and I believe Credit Karma had been telling me 720-730.

FWIW, my Credit Karma score was off by 100 points. It's just an estimate. I knew something wasn't right, so I joined MyFico. I pay $5 a month for monitoring and get my score/report every 3 months (included in that price). You could just pay the first $5, get your score/report, and then cancel.

It is important to know that there is more than one credit score per credit bureau (consumer reporting agency). A mortgage credit score will differ from one for purchasing a car or truck, and both will vary from an insurance credit score, for instance. And any one of these can change daily since it is a snap shot.
