Differing Scores!

Haven't been on here for ages, (husband diagnosed with Terminal Cancer. kinda puts things in a different persepective) just having a quick browse check my score on both experian and equifax,; Experian is Excellent 980 the Equifax is 336 poor, both have same accounts, information etc, any ideas anyone?
I dont suppose it really matters, because i dont live on credit anyway (and i do feel free knowing that) but does anyone know why they are so vastly different?
DFW Nerd no. 1191;)
Maximum Debt £33k in 2007 :eek: all on CC's (I know, lesson learned; never consolidate and not cut up the cards!)
Now completely debt free, but it was a double edged sword :(

    Your score means NOTHING, DIDDLY SQUAT, NADA, its a ploy to get you to part with your money for nothing.

    If your debts exceed more than 50% of your income then your unlikely to get credit anywhere.
