I use to belong to the Credit Check Total site for the monitoring of my 3 bureaus.. I use to pay $15/month for unlimited EX Fico score and report updates, and every 30 days I could get a new 3-credit bureaus report with this fee. I just got told by a representative that they're no longer going to be doing this anymore and that Credit Check Total is a very old system and therefore they're going to dissapear.. Does anyone know anything about this? if so, who is the next good credit report monitoring that is just a good? I like that I only paid $15/month because I don't want to pay the usual $30/mo for this service and some of them don't even update daily.. they do it once a month or once every 2-3 months with only one report. I'd really appreciate your input. Thanks and have a nice day.
This is news to me, I am sure others in the myFICO forum with chime in.

Any time someone experiences any sort of adversity with CCT it seems another thread pops up to further churn the waters. Until we see a majority chiming in with similar experiences, we can continue to say that these incidents are the exception, not the rule.
Besides, I just learned about the revolving $1 trial and have not had a chance to exploit it! It simply can't end!
Yeah...I just signed up today
It seems this may be going into effect. I could not sign up for the trial and was given a couple different messages. I finally was directed to Experian and then called them as well and it seems that CCT might be gone for new subscribers. It seems that it will be replaced by Creditworks Premium.

It lloks like a similar product without the $1 trials but says it gives you daily EX score.. Fico8, I presume. Those with the CCT 5 year plan might get to stay on that? I wonder if a deal will be offered here when you call to cancel after the $4.99 first month?
May offer other scoring models in the future?
1Credit score is calculated based on FICO® Score 8 model, unless otherwise noted. In addition to the FICO® Score 8, we may offer and provide other base or industry-specific FICO® Scores (such as FICO® Auto Scores and FICO® Bankcard Scores). Your lender or insurer may use a different FICO® Score than FICO® Score 8 or such other base or industry-specific FICO® Score (if available), or another type of credit score altogether.
Well, that's seems a really weird way to go about closing down a service.
I just signed up for a new trial subscription on Monday 10/1. Then today (10/4) I cancelled it, then immediately signed up for a new trial subscription so I could get fresh credit scores. So many rumors of CCT shutting down but it still continues to run.
