No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I do the $1 trial thru Credit Check Total every few weeks. I also have the subscription from MyFico
I have been paying for myfico but now that my credit report is clean and scores leveled out, I will probably cancel.
Discover credit scorecard is separate from discover credit card. Through scorecard, you can get a free monthly experian fico score. I have a discover credit card and get a free TU score monthly. My citi dc card provides a free monthly equifax score. I monitor changes to my credit reports on credit karma. I just ignore their scores.

That citi dc provided score is a bankcard 08 score with a possible 900, it is an equifax score but not a fico 08.

I've been paying a monthly membership for access to my credit reports and scores straight from EX, EQ, and TU's websites. About 40-45$ a month total. I wouldn't mind keeping it the same except I've just come to realize that I'm only getting vantage scores from TU and EQ. I want to find a way to regularly monitor changes in my credit report and fico scores. What is everyone here using?
As someone else said CCT trials work, and when you call to cancel they will offer you a discount to keep it open for 14.95 per month for a year. I had rather just pay that than have to keep messing with the trials.

I get my TU from my Discover It Secured card for free. It updates monthly on the 15th for me.
I get my Experian score from experian.com for free. Sign up for their $1, 7 day trial and cancel within 7 days and you can get a monthly update. it updates on the 30th for me (as long as I log in on the 30th).
I signed up for Experian towards the end of the month that way I get bi-weekly updates from a major CRA (the 15th and 30th each month).
Then, I use Credit Karma for weekly information, but those are FAKO scores. I mainly use CK for...honestly I don't know why, but I do my budget every Friday and that is when I check my CK just to keep myself focused on the end goal.
yup, use CCT and then cancel the trial over the phone. They will try and keep you by offering 15.00 a month which is great seeing as Experian is updated daily and the monthyl refresh of all 3 are on the 27th of the month, Not bad for 15.00
