11-15? its 30 bucks for 2 scores. i appreciate the thought but thankfully i am not poor. i just simply dont desire to throw out 30 bucks if my score hasnt been updated yet ...and then having to pay more again the next week. i apologize for being smart with what i currently have and not treating it like 'oh its just 50 bucks for curiosity..whatever..'.... im trying not to take offense, but that was a teeeny bit offensive.

I was going to say the same thing as CT. Not to be taken the wrong way. Just when I read the "I cant afford.." It sounded as you were really in financial hardships and opening a CC would be the least of importance. After reading your repost, I completely understand not wanting to throw $30 out the window in order to see if scores jumped.
Sometimes when writing email, post etc. Its easy to be misinterpreted from original intent. Again, I completely know what you mean now.

Yup, that's what I read and I thought the same thing -- save your money and buy groceries !! I'm super glad to see that's not the case and OP doesn't want to pay the $$ ... I totally get that!
I'm not sure if this is ok to post or not but if you google fico codes, you get interesting information.

I agree with you. At one point I was spending upward of $80.00 a month just for CR and updates. That does not include the scores. Since I was trying to save money I decided to go with one program until more things happen credit and repair wise. Now it is $15.00 a month. When I feel what has happened has made a significant plus, I will buy the scores.
