@AppleInc it's the credit monitoring product on Experian. Trial is $4.99 then $24.99 p/m after.
*Update
You're correct. New reports are only made available every 90 days. Creditworks will only notify you of changes.
I'm just waiting for the 6th month of my oldest account then sign up for myfico. Experian is great for their reports, cleaner UI and $4.99 trial so its not too bad. TU is $9.95 trial and experian $7.99. Great thing is if they can't pull your report for any reason they refund

Yes, but you'll need to use different email addresses
This is actually not true - all you need to do is log back into your same account after the cancellation and voila! "you've qualified for another $1 7-day trial!" will pop up. I've been paying $1 every other week for a couple months now, and getting updates on a weekly basis - no email tomfoolery required

I currently have the MyFico 3BReport but I only receive my reports on a quarterly basis, which is frustrating because I have paid off several collections (deleted as well) and charge-offs and I would like to know if my reports reflect the changes and how it impacted my scores.
Our OP (above) and others on this thread (RebuildingInSC) ask for ways to get reports from all three bureaus. The best cost-free solution I know of is a combination of Credit Karma (for EQ and TU) and freeCreditScore (for EX).

The latter gives you a true FICO 8 classic score and a report each month. Karma gives you EQ and TU reports as often as once a week.
This approach can be supplemented with free monthly FICO scores from many CC issuers, along with the occasional $1 Credit Check Total pull a couple times a year. There are banks and CUs that give free FICO scores as well.
myFICO Premier, by way of contrast, costs almost $500 a year. That's a lot of burgers at Five Guys. Even the $25/mo options mentioned in this thread still run you $300 a year. Nothing wrong with anyone paying for those of course. But it should be done intentionally, in my opinion, after at least considering a solution that would cost $0.
That is helpful advice. Thank you!
With Experian CreditWorks you get all 3 reports/scores monthly and experian daily:
Monthly 3-Bureau Report & FICO Scores
Daily Experian Credit Report & FICO Scores
What I'm not sure about is if you get the updated scores from TU and EQ daily???
