I get so many updates, it had started to become annoying - as I would not be in front of a PC, and I would want to adjust the target score STAT and would have to do it on my small 4in phone screen.
Starting Score: TU:650 - EQ: 672Current Score: TU: 706 - EQ: 680 - EX: 699
Goal Score: 700

Per the 2nd report, if you click into the SW product bar, and look under the graph, you should see an option for the 2nd report. Now I always thought the 2nd report wasn't available until you have been subscribed for at least 3 months, but someone corrected me. If that 2nd report isn't showing (w/ the first being used when subscribed), then you should see an option for 30% off future EQ FICO reports. If you do pull a FICO report again do so via that link and you'll save $6 or so. I had been on here for a year paying full price when I realized I could have been saving all along.

Yes i see the 30% reduced price, but why should i be buying it and see the updated score. The score watch should trigger this. On 31st i knew there was a change but didnt get any alert. I purchased it and saw a increase in the score. After 2 hours of purchase i get an alert saying my score has changed.
I dont think the monitroring is happening correctly, or will this happen only when you finish off your trial period and become a memeber.

Remember though that your EQ FICO is monitored at least weekly, as opposed to daily. If you got a score alert, absent a credit alert for the change in that CC, then it falls back to the monitoring only. If you pulled a new EQ FICO report 3-4 days after subscribing, and saw the score change in the new report, followed by a score alert hours later showing you what you already knew, then that score alert came timely. For best results, immediately set your target score to match your last known score.

I just pulled a daily report from EQ site to see that a change in both score and an account had been deleted. So... I logged on to MYFICO and bought a new sw report for the real fico score. ( I am subscribed to SW btw). My score actually increased by six points but no alert. At least I get the 30% off, but I have been doubting SW reliability for a few months now.

SW (and every other service out there) does not alert to dropped accounts. Your score isn't monitored daily either. When did the TL drop?
