Myfico SW Alert...Auuugghh!

MsKmm, I had that same problem. I discovered on this forum that it was b/c I had my target score set wrong. I had it set to 800. Great goal, but bad for SW alerts. Set the target score at your current score, make changes in balances, etc. the minimum avail (eg. $5 bal. change,).

Just be glad you are receiving alerts lol.  I have used ScoreWatch on the MyFico and Equifax sites and never receive alerts when there are changes to my accounts.

Well see, the thing is i wasnt receiving any alerts for awhile either so i called Equifax and spoke with a really nice guy and i told him that i usually receive a score alert around the 18-20th of every month.

He told me to turn off my target score range , and wait for about a week (hoping by friday to see score change)then i should be seeing a score change. Well, i did began get alerts like crazy but no score change. It sucks and i have had plenty of new accounts added and balances have been updated! I just dont get it!

But i thought i would share that with you! Good Luck!
