Just wondering myfico sends out alerts for inquiries. I am subscribed to 3b. Thanks

Yes, I receive them for inquiries, score changes, balance changes.

Sometime it takes a day or two for an inquiry to hit the service, sometimes almost immediate.

Ok, thank you. I just wondered because I had a hard pull today, and it showed up on my Credit Karma and Credit Sesame, but not on here yet.

Not sure why myFICO didn't alert you but if you're relying on myFICO monitoring then make sure you're aware of the triggers. Not all activity with a scoring impacts is a trigger. Inquiriies, however, are triggers.
