Credit Score Education

Your credit score is used by lenders to decide if they’ll approve you for a credit card or loan and is an indicator of how likely you are to repay debt. Credit scores are generated using information from your credit report and proprietary scoring models. FICO is a credit score model used by most top lenders. If you are enrolled in online banking with Redstone, your FICO1 score is available for FREE. You can check it an unlimited number of times without it impacting your score. Remember to review your credit report annually to ensure the information is accurate and correct any potential inaccuracies which may impact your credit score. You can get one free credit report each year at annualcreditreport.com.
