True Credit Alerts???..is this thing on?

[Anonymous]

does anyone get regular ALERTS with TC anymore? 

i am not sure how long it has been since I recieved one by email, ( probably late last year) but i do get an occasional alert when I "update" , but even that is not always accurate...

just wondering if its only me or someone needs to reset the alert switch over at TC...

I've gotten a bunch since my app-o-rama. I get them about 2 days after I see them on the report pulls, lol. It gets pretty confusing since first I see the change on the report itself, and then alerts start trickling in from TC, this weird EX product I have, and EQ Credit Gold. It feels like I opened 70 new accounts instead of 7! And gosh, if I had gotten a single alert from ScoreWatch, it would be even worse.

I did notice that I got twice as many TC alerts for changes on my EQ and EX reports as on my TU report. I wonder if pulling a TC report cancels a scheduled alert for a TU change? since TC is a TU product.

And I was getting "no change" reports before all this.

Rarely but when I do they're very to late and sometimes not alerted at all. I just delete TC alerts from my email. You're better off pulling a new TC credit report at least once a month to look for changes. I do it every day. I would turn off TC alerts if I could.

Pizza,

yep, i pull regularly and that may cancel out any alerts, but not sure.

being able to do daily pulls is probably the best feature of True Credit

Not only do I experience the same lag on alerts that everyone is mentioning (if I get them at all), my fiance got an alert today that he had a new derogatory account. It turns out it was a paid collection that hadn't updated, so I disputed it and it was finally changed to paid...about three days ago. I have learned to completely disregard TC alerts.
