Can Myfico still access new info/scores even if my reports are frozen/locked? Just feel like the app hasnt updated me in a while on anything new.
Did you lock your reports after obtaining your first 3B report? Or was one or more of your reports locked prior?
No at that time I don't think so. Either way my 3b report had updated. But just hasn't changed much since then. Whereas before I got several alerts throughout each week about some changes. Now I haven't gotten any alerts since the 1st. Could it just be coincidence? I feel like not but that's why I'm asking. Becayse I know prequal weren't working for me with my reports frozen also. So idk if its the same concept
Like I know for a fact my scores are higher now but they haven't updated on Myfico foe some reason. I know via CK(fakos I know) but also various other websites that offer me free fico scores.
For people on this thread to help you best, they really need a timeline:
On what date did you first pull your myFICO Ultimate report?
When did you pull your last 3B report? Did the scores change from the previous report? (Remember that a full 90 days has to elapse before FICO will update the 3B report with new scores/data.)
When did you freeze your credit reports? Are all three frozen?
When is the last time you got an alert showing a change for each of the three FICO 8 scores?
Assembling this kind of precise timeline will also be helpful if you end up calling MF customer service. You may also want to try pulling your three FICO 8 scores through the $1 trial at Credit Check Total. That may give you helpful information.

NOT SURE EXACTLY. BUT WELL OVER 6-7 MONTHS AGO.
When did you pull your last 3B report? Did the scores change from the previous report? (Remember that a full 90 days has to elapse before FICO will update the 3B report with new scores/data.)
LAST 3B REPORT WAS AROUND NOVEMBER 1ST. YES SCORES CHANGED FROM PREVIOUS BUT HAVENT SINCE THEN LIKE THEY USUALLY WERE BEFORE I FROZE MY REPORTS.
When did you freeze your credit reports? Are all three frozen?
HONESTLY NOT SURE OF DATE. BUT YES ALL 3 ARE FROZEN.
When is the last time you got an alert showing a change for each of the three FICO 8 scores?
LAST ALERT WAS NOVEMBER 16TH BUT WAS AN UPDATE ON A DISPUTE IS ALL.

NOT SURE IF JUST COINCIDENTALLY NOT CHANGING OR IF ITS BECAUSE OF MY FROZEN REPORTS IS BASICALLT WHAT IM ASKING. I BELIEVE IT HAS TO DO WITH MY FROZEN REPORTS. BUT I DIDNT KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE HAD BETTER INSIGHT ON HERE OR HAS RAN INTO THE SAME PROBLEM? AFTER ABOUT ANOTHER MONTH I WILL UNLOCK MY REPORTS FOR GOOD. SO FAR I HAVE ONLY UNLOCKED THEM FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES TO CHECK A COUPLE PREQUAL SITES AND LOCKED THEM RIGHT BACK UP. IM TRYING TO DODGE A HARD PULL RIGHT NOW AND IT SEEMS TO BE WORKING AS ITS BEEN 20 PLUS DAYS SINCE I GOT DENIED FOR DISCOVER AND HAVE YET TO GET A HP AS I LOCKED MY REPORTS SECONDS AFTER DENIAL. LOL. IVE NEVER READ ABOUT ANYONE TRYING THAT BUT I FIGURED ITS WORTH A SHOT. AND AM GOING TO SHARE THE KNOWLEDGE AFTER ABOUT ANOTHER MONTH WHEN I KNOW IM IN THE CLEAR. ![]()
Wow slightly removed. Thanks for the info. Yes I'm just using simple credit locks on the apps. Had no idea there were true security freezes as you say. And oh ok. Yea ill keep that in mind to unlock experian. Makes sense. And ok. I've never read into this forum to be honest so I've never seen anyone with the same issue. Apparentyl I posted in the wrong forum because it got moved to here. I typically read credit cards,credit card apps,and credit card approvals so I'm gonna check out 5this forum topic now that I found it. But thanks for all the info. I think it's just a slow reporting month for me probably.
