Score Alerts

Deltadog03 — Fri, 27 Feb 2015 17:04:07 GMT

Good morning everyone! Happy Friday So, I am trying to understand the whole alerts thing. I have read and re-read the FAQ and it appears to me that it takes an "EVENT/TRIGGER" for the first time to set the stuff in motiion? So, when the next "EVENT/TRIGGER" will actually let you know? I just had my Barclays account update on my CR *I know its updated from CK updating this morning* and it updated on my Credit Reports on the 24th. So, where is my alert on here? I have my Cap 1 card to update probably tomorrow, on my CR, will I have to wait for that so it triggers something and then I can see both alerts? And then every time something triggers on the reports I get an update? Sorry, its kind of confusing.

If you figure it out, let me know. From what I can tell, it's nothing but hit or miss on the alerts. I've had multiple events that are supposed to trigger an update and have not done so. Or have done so only on one bureau and not the others.

LOL just logged into my Dashboard and seen 2 red alerts and yay! EQ udated with my Barclays new balance and got a 7 point rise. I am expecting another 7-15 point rise once my balace updates on my CR with my Cap 1 card reports...should be soon as my statement cut on the 25th. Barclays posted *updated on my CR on the 24th* and got this on the 27th...so maybe a few days delay? I know its updated on my TU, and should be on EX, but I didn't get a score alert on HERE yet for them...Seems like it takes longer?

Lol SMDH. I get an alert from here saying that there was no changes to my EX report this week. Lol what? I had a major decrease in CCD balance, I think it's 5% for the trigger for EX? Unless they haven't reported and update but I find that fishy. Sounds like a lot of people are having issues with them

For me EX is the worst, can go weeks without an update. TU is much better but still does not match EQ which is Johnny on the spot with updates (usually 2 days after the event reporting).

Thank you for the reply. It would be nice if EX did hurry up and update. LOL My EX score is the highest and would be nice to see what I got...hehehe
