I've been using MyFico for, well, too long, but about 7 years now (my FICO is around 835).
I recently noticed what I'll call the "new" interface with green bubbles that show my FICO, rather than the old-fashioned table array.
I guess I am old-school because I sure do prefer the old-fashioned table array that presented the numerical information in a logical manner. I can see the utility of presenting the scores over time in a graphical manner, as in the graph. But I still want to see my table of scores. And the green bubbles are too cutesy and too cluttery...especially when the information that I am paying dearly for ($150 per year) is no longer available to me.
I have always found the MyFico interface to be unfriendly and difficult. Now it is so much worse than ever. I did allow my subscription to renew for another year but that may be it.
If you click in each bubble you get the info you got before for EQ, now you get it for all three. This new display is so much better.
And, I am saying that as a continuous critic of their current incompetent "alert system,"
I, too, dislike the new interface - the bubbles vs a graph over time. Graphs are a very standard waay of expressing change over time - which is my primary interest. The bubbles over time present a cluttered, erratic, overlapping smear. I realllllly don't like it. In fact, I think "my fico" has now outlived its usefullness. My Discover card gives me my score. I kept MyFico for the history. Now that that's not as I like it I will be not renewing.
The "graphs over time" have not disappeared, they are just relocated. The service has some real problems, so no need to add imaginary ones out of your own incompetence to navigate a simple website.

clicking alerts to see what each one is painful, i'm sure it works wonderfully on LAN speed and latency, put a few hundred miles between the client and the server and its annoyingly slow... the testers should have to try it out on a 56k modem before they ship these features... I don't have a modem connection I have a 30mbit/5mbit link and its painful, and I don't have a slow computer or one that is limited in ram... its the latency that kills it.
