MyFICO Two Month Credit for Faulty Monitoring

It's nice to finally see MyFICO accept responsibility for the problem rather than pretending it did not exist.

Would you mind elaborating a little bit the post is kind of vague.

That is nice. I canceled two weeks ago and the CSR did not even ask why... just said "OK".... I had a scare with a change in an address with TU... completely wrong. Not sure where the address change came into play. Glad you received two months free!

That's good to know, though I'm with the others who'd like to hear more about what the initial problem was.

 

I just upgraded last week from EQ Score Watch monitoring to three bureau SW monitoring and so far I'm still getting alerts only from EQ. I was going to wait a week or so to see if TU and EX catch up (I've gotten EX alerts through Credit Sesame, so I know the bureau has the info), but so far, it appears the product is faulty and I'm not looking forward to the kind of nightmare customer service experience a lot of other people have described.

Re: MyFICO Two Month Credit for Faulty Monitoring

I didn't recieve EX alerts for over a month after signing up for the 3 score and ID monitoring. I didn't recieve TU updates for a couple months.  Over the last month both have issued alerts in alignment with the FAQ. They have to taylor alerts with what each CRA is capable of generating. I was annoyed with the sloppy rollout but bugs are in the nature of this sort of scale change. I expected they would fix it and they did.

 

I recieved a notice and credit for two months a couple days ago.  Seems like a pretty responsible thing to di.


I have reestablished credit over the last couple years
so my moniker is, well, rather out of date.

Re: MyFICO Two Month Credit for Faulty Monitoring

I received the same email saying that I would receive a credit for two months. I have only received a credit for one month (credit received on 12/24). Anyone else have this happen?

Re: MyFICO Two Month Credit for Faulty Monitoring

I followed up with Customer Care, explaining that I received an email saying that I would be credited for two months' billings at $19.95 each, and that on 12/24 I did receive a credit, but it was for one month. I waited a week to see if the other month's fee would be credited, but it had not.

 

Today I received a reply telling me:

Thank you for contacting myFICO Customer Care. We apologize for the technical error affecting your order. A refund of $ 19.95 was processed for the months of November and December.

Regards,
myFICO Customer Care

Dudes. I am trying to tell you that I have not received one of the refunds. Called the phone number, and even though they are supposed to be open until 6 PM PST (I think that's what it said on the site), they were closed.

 

*sigh* Why do I get the feeling that it's going to take more than $20 worth of my time to get their error resolved?

I have not had an issue with the credit. Both credits were applied on 12.24.

More importantly, I am so pleased that I am now receiving a decent flow of alerts. Smiley Happy
