Discover IT FICO starting Nov 19

Anonymous — Fri, 08 Nov 2013 05:04:17 GMT

Saw someone post this over on SD claiming that they spoke to a supervisor and that Discover IT cardholders will get their FICO for free on their statement each month starting Nov 19.

Anyone know more about this?

I haven't heard anything about it, but I really hope it's true.

Hopefully it's different than TransUnion. Walmart Card, Barclay both give you TU scores.

SD= sock drawer

A term for the card goes unused

In this case, SD refers to SlickDeals (a website). The topic the OP was referring to can be found here.

If they start offering that, oh my god, it would be awesome!

More credit card companies should start doing that.

Let's hope this is not another one of those rumors...lol! Plus, I sure hope it's EQ or EX and not TU, since Walmart already furnishes it. It would be awesome , though.

Ticks me off that they have time for stuff like this, but NOT time to bring back the pretty card designs from the More. Or time to give me a decent credit line, LOL.

It would be great if they did.... just hope it is not TU again... (Barclays, Walmart)... we need diversity in Ficos too ..LOL

Can't say for sure it's true, but the local news reported last night that FICO is allowing banks to provide free scores to customers. The first two mentioned were Barclays and First Nat'l Bank of Omaha. Perhaps, Discover is the next in line.

Seems to coincide with this bit of news. Very exciting if Discover does decide to do this.

Slickdeals is one of the reasons why i wanted to improve my credit. Everyone would talk about discover or chase freedom getting cash back to get a better deal. I dont have either of the cards yet but i am lot closer than I have ever been thanks to myfico forums.

I would love for Discover to give an EQ FICO. I already love the card but that would really be amazing.

If this information is confirmed, it might be the deciding factor when choosing my next card. I'm planning to add a couple new CCs over the next couple of years to replace my SL TLs as I pay them off.

At the bottom of the Discover website there is a link titled "Credit Score Tracker" when you click on the link it brings you to a screen with a message that says that they are not currently accepting new enrollments for credit score tracker. This would make me think that they are going to start providing scores soon

That Credit Score Tracker link has been there (and has been "dead") since I got my Discover IT in Feb of this year.

For anyone who has had the Discover IT for a while: has Discover ever provided a credit score before?
