I was using credit karma to montior my accoutns but of course its only for TU and EQ. I now have all 3 credit agencies covered now that I added the Experian free report from their site that I can check every month. I just wanted to pass this along for anyone else that did not know this service!
I didn't know about this! Thanks for passing the information along 
Here's how to get the complete picture from Experian for FREE:
- experian.com - free Experian credit report, refreshed every 30 days upon login
- creditscorecard.com - free FICO Score 8 based on Experian data, refreshed every 30 days upon login
For the OCD among us, here's a timeline for you to follow:
- January 29
- February 28
- March 30
- April 30
- May 30
- June 30
- July 30
- August 30
- September 30

A membership simply gets you daily report and score updates (for Experian).
Do you have a specific link or reference for the free FICO score offered by Experian? Because when I login to view my Free Credit Report, I see this.
Hmm, that's really weird! Here is the page that I get when I login:
I don't know if it has any bearing, but I signed up for the $1 trial membership for 7 days, as indicated by the report (Jun 21 - June 28). I cancelled the membership before the seven days were up (also used a burner card -- privacy.com, would recommend for these things -- just in case cancelling didnt work). I can confirm that I haven't been charged anything past the $1 as well. Maybe take that $1 plunge and see if that triggers monthly FICO scores?
Edit: I can confirm that my FICO score has actually been updating the past three months, especially due to the increase as a result of a SSL.

I created my account within the "Experian - Free Credit Report" Android app, and it created an account on the main Experian site with the free report+score enabled...
Thank you to everyone who posted on this thread, I didn't know about any of this!
