Why it's Important to Monitor Your Credit

 At North Shore Bank, your financial success is our goal. Recent reports show that more than one-third of consumers have found at least one error on their credit report. Errors on credit reports are not uncommon, so staying up to date and reviewing your credit report is a must. Common errors on credit reports include personal information like a wrong name or address or account information like an account you do not recognize. It is important to correct errors to ensure they don’t negatively impact your credit score.

About My Credit Score

My Credit Score uses a “soft inquiry” when checking credit scores which does not affect your credit score.


You can manage the credit alerts, monthly notices, and general messages you receive from Savvy Money, North Shore Bank’s partner that provides My Credit Score. You can also manage your email notifications to match your preferences.

FAQs

Yes! If you happen to see an error on your credit report, you can file a dispute directly with TransUnion at the bottom of the Credit Report page by clicking on “Start a Dispute”. You will need to create an account or login to TransUnion’s website and then submit your dispute. TransUnion will begin their research and if they find that the error is valid, they will update your credit profile and pass the error information on to Equifax and Experian. You may need to follow up with the other two bureaus to ensure your errors have been corrected.

YES! We encourage you to enroll so that you may closely monitor your credit profile and report any errors in a timely manner.

My Credit Score is a credit monitoring tool we provide to you at no cost to learn more about how your financial decisions impact your credit score. You can expect your score to be different because we consider additional credit factors in your loan application that are not available in this tool that may result in a different score. 

My Credit Score uses the Vantage Score 3.0 scoring model and pulls your credit profile from Trans Union. There are additional credit factors we consider when reviewing your loan application by using a FICO scoring model. The use of different scoring models is why you see a difference in your scores. 

No scoring models are identical, but are directionally the same. If your score goes up based on your credit activity in My Credit Score, you might see an increase in the scores we pull for loan applications as well.
