Re: Score watch updating?

I'm confused after reading this sticky - http://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/myFICO-Product-Feedback/Score-Watch-Guide/m-p/603543?jump=true

 

"Equifax reports are checked daily for Credit Alert changes to the credit report." 

 

Isn't a balance decrease a "change to the credit report"?  Isn't the removal of an item a "change to the credit report"? Or is a change to a credit report defined as only new accounts, new inquiries?

2013 Starting: 593 Scores: 617 (EQfico) 658 (EXvant) 640 (TUfico) | Goal scores: 700 - 19 pos TL's / 5 baddies (1 pd) / 40% reported util
My Wallet: BofA 3k | Kay's 2k | Discover/AU 1.5k | Walmart 1k | Emblem 809 | Amazon Store 700 | Paypal BML 600 | Citi/Goodyear 500 | Chase 500 | FPB 425 | Capital One 320 | Target 300 | Capital One 300 | FPB 300
