Thanks for sharing. I pulled mine. I am very satisfied with this. There was a note that said after the 10th of each month you will have a new score. 

 

Glad I have this card now.

I just want to point out that I pulled my TU on here on Sunday, pulled it on through Walmart yesterday and it was way lower then sunday. I went and did the credit karma one (vantage) and it matches the walmart score exactly. So, I'm not so sure how good of a free score it is.....Has anyone else tried this?
