I keep reading that there is nowhere to "figure out how FICO scoring works." There are several spots to do this. The best is www.myfico.com. I understand that there is a bunch of junk to buy their services, but there is some very valuable information for free. There is even a few brochures you can download for free. As an insurance agent, I feel it is not up to me to monitor my clients credit scores, but if it is going to have an impact on their premium or status, this information would only help.
As far as what to do about credit scoring; keep it. Not only does it project claims experience (which I feel is debatable), but it also leads into the administrative costs to process late payments, non-renewals, etc. and the issues surrounding them. However there should be exceptions for extenuating circumstances.
