Nothing I saw in the material. I've got both myFICO and the new service this month so I'll keep and eye on both and compare. I had a myFICO update on my TU 8 score yesterday, so far nothing from credit.com. Of course it's possible that the new service might be planning real time FICO 8 updates but hasn't implemented yet, they are not in full production mode. Now at least EQ has a "coming soon" icon rather than just showing blanks.

I assume the intro offer is sort of a beta test, the email included this:
*Extra Credit is in the testing and validation phase. Some features may not yet be available. Those features will be available soon.

I've already paid $719.10 for the last 18 months of a myFICO Premier subscription. I consider it 'non-discretionary insurance spend' until I am settled into a new home with mortgage.
Over those same 18 months, I have paid $1,011.06 to Adobe for full access to every app they have. I still can't believe it's only a $300 difference.
Signed up yesterday and it said 30-days and now it says 29. So its safe to say every 30-days.
Keep in mind EQ scores are still not available ("Coming Soon")

Thanks! That's looking pretty good then. Even if it took them another 3 months to work it all out, it's something to look forward to.
I just got an email asking for feedback and suggestions. The main thing I've noticed so far is that is they are not sending alerts for balance changes or updating FICO 8 scores like myFICO does. If anyone has other suggestions they would like to make, let me know and I'll forward them on.

If they are going to turn this into a paid product, full credit reports would be more appropriate than the credit scorecard they offer now.

The do offer downloaded reports, but you have to select each bureau separately and download each rather than the consolidated report that myFICO provides:
They also only show 4 years of payment history detail. I'm also not sure how they show derogs, there is no "Payment Status" or "Worst Delinquency" row like there is in the myFICO reports. My last 30 day late just fell off my report a couple of weeks ago, otherwise I would be able to see how that would have shown up. The PDF report is pretty basic, no scores and minimal summary, and no PDF bookmarks.

Nice. Glad to see they implemented that. That's why I stopped using credit.com was because Experian gave me a real report and I got the other two from CK.

As far as I know this is only for the new paid product. I assume the free credit.com score is staying the same as it was.

Yes I figured as much from my login last night but I don't expect it from them for free. I do expect it from a paid service though so I'm glad they added that.
