25. Free Credit Score
Bolster provides all Members with free access to their TransUnion VantageScore 3.0 credit score and provides Members who pay for Bolster Premium Services with access to their credit report (collectively “Credit Score”). By accessing your Credit Score through the Services, you agree to provide Bolster the following credit pull authorization:
I hereby authorize Bolster to periodically obtain and use consumer reports about me in order to provide me with (1) access to my free credit score, including periodic updates to my credit score, and (2) recommendations regarding financial products and services that may be of interest to me, including credit cards, personal loans, home loans and other financial products and services offered by Bolster partners.
If you find discrepancies with your credit score or information from your credit report, please contact Experian directly.
26. About VantageScore 3.0
VantageScore 3.0, with scores ranging from 300 to 850, is a user-friendly credit score model developed by the three major nationwide credit reporting agencies, Experian®, TransUnion®, and Equifax®. VantageScore 3.0 is used by some, but not all, lenders. Higher scores represent a greater likelihood that you'll pay back your debts, so you're viewed as being a lower credit risk to lenders. A lower score indicates to lenders that you may be a higher credit risk.
There are three (3) different major credit reporting agencies (Experian, TransUnion and Equifax) that maintain a record of your credit history, also known as your credit file. Credit scores are based on the information in your credit file at the time it's requested. Your credit file information can vary from agency to agency because some lenders report your credit history to only one or two of the agencies.
Your credit scores can vary if the information they have on file for you is different. Since the information in your file can change over time, your credit scores also may be different from day-to-day. Different credit scoring models can also give a different assessment of the credit risk (risk of default) for the same consumer and same credit file.
There are different credit scoring models which may be used by lenders and insurers. Your lender may not use VantageScore 3.0, so don't be surprised if your lender gives you a score that's different from your VantageScore. Your VantageScore 3.0 may also differ from your score under other types of VantageScores.
Just remember that your associated risk level is often the same even if the number isn't. For some consumers, however, the risk assessment of VantageScore 3.0 could vary, sometimes substantially, from a lender's score. If the lender's score is lower than your VantageScore 3.0, it's possible that this difference can lead to higher interest rates and sometimes credit denial.
27. Bolster Legal Watch™
If you elect to participate in Bolster Legal Watch through selecting the opt-in box at the time of sign-up, you agree to allow an attorney licensed in your state to review your credit report in search of violations of federal law.

Should you decide to move forward in pursuing those claims, you will sign a fee agreement with a law firm.

Their attorney will handle your case at no cost to you unless you win at which point your attorney will be paid attorneys fees from your case and you would receive money damages of up to $1,000 per violation, should the claims be successful.
