Let me preface this by saying that I am completely financially illiterate. I’m trying to self teach myself after getting into some trouble.
I bank with BMO. On my BMO app I am seeing a credit score of 727, which according to the app is really not good.
I also have the Borrowell app which I got about 3 years ago when I rented a place and the landlord required a credit check (my first time ever seeing what my score was). This app currently states I have a 799 score, which apparently is pretty good.
My question is.. which one is the “true” score? I would have to guess it’s the BMO one. Also, why is there such a big discrepancy? If I attempt to purchase a home or something in the near future, which score would be used?
