Checking My CTOS Score for the First Time

Posted on July 13, 2021June 23, 2021 by Figuringgitout

Amongst the basic things that I’ve always heard people saying in this personal finance world is to keep your credit score high. Naturally, I became curious to see how I do credit-wise.

So of course I have to check my CTOS score.

The process was super easy and convenient:

  1. Create CTOS ID Account – details needed: full name, IC number, email, mobile number, AND video selfie of me holding my IC
  2. I purchased MyCTOS Score Report for RM23.44 – online payment
  3. And I immediately received the report and invoice vide email

And this was the result –

According to iProperty’s chart here, my score is viewed ‘very favourably by lenders’.

And according to MyCTOS account –

This 781 score was derived from my car loan and credit card. My credit summary from my CTOS account –

I might have trouble controlling my spendings and making money, but guys ~ I pay my debt in time ~ No missed payment! Give me extra credit… or maybe not.

There are so many comprehensive contents out there on CTOS, so if you are interested, here you go. For further read:
