Credit Card Enhanced FICO Scoring?

[fused]

Is there such a thing as cc enhanced FICO scoring?  I am familiar with mortgage and auto ones?  Also, do ccc's use some sort of formula to determine not only your credit risk, but the likelihood they can make money off you. For example, finance charges.

Yes- As far as I know the FICO score I get from WAMU is "Credit Card Enhanced" as it differs from my MYFICO score.

Yes.. it's actually "bank card enhanced".

I understand you have to wait 90 days when you first get the card before viewing your first score and that score will be the one they got when they pulled your CR. Thereafter I believe the score is updated monthly. Correct Tuscani?

That might be partially correct, and my account is only a month old so I can't relay information beyond my initial days; however, I was able to see the original score within 2 weeks.

I don't think there is any truth to that 90 day wait.
