C- credit. C minus as a credit score. That is what a 640 out of FICO 850 is, a “C-“.
FICO over 750 is a good credit card credit score.
In Las Vegas, Money 20/20 is taking place. A lot of credit executives and technology startup co-founders like Lisa Falzone and Tina Hui are there. The credit industry has efforts that counter millennials effort to have a credit score that sets the bell curve with high credit score marks.

The use of pre-paid will never get you to a FICO of 811.
