No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
When I tried to check my FICO score on Amex I was redirected to American Express MyCredit Guide for my Free Credit Score and Report. Free credit score updates weekly upon log-in. Alerts to help detect identity fraud. Your detailed TransUnion® credit report. All with MyCredit Guide. All for free. I was shown a VantageScore.
Amex is offering CreditSecure for $16.95 a month with provides FICO Scores & Reports. Refresh your FICO Scores and 3-bureau credit reports every 30 days, receive alerts for changes in scores and reports, and access tools to help you understand which factors contribute to your score.
I guess Amex is trying to boost profits and selling CreditSecure which includes EX FICO score.
I just checked and my EX FICO score was updated on 12/1/2018.
That in itself is unusual; I have three Amex cards and the EX FICO score usually updates on the Statement Close date for each card.
Still Fico 08 here updated 11/28, so got awhile to see.
I had started trying that mycreditguide,but for me it doesn't show any info
Keep us posted on what's happening....

My desktop login changed to 'American Expresss MyCredit Guide' since I made my payment this morning. But when I go to 'Account Services' and scroll down to 'Veiw My FICO Score' the old 'Your FICO® Score 8 based on Experian data is the same score used by American Express' page comes up.
My Credit Guide is offered for free even to non Amex members.
If you're looking under Menu/My account page, the links seem to be for MCG.
Use the "View Fico Score" from the list of links on your main account page & you should see your Fico 8.
If not, you can unenroll in the MCG from your account menu.

Mine updated around the 23rd. I was on there yesterday and did not notice a change. We'll see what happens, but BBS brings up a good point in the availability of the Experian score elsewhere.
For anyone that hasn't yet signed up at creditscore.com or creditscorecard.com, if you do so 2 weeks apart you'll effectively be able to obtain your EX FICO 8 score every 2 weeks for free. Those scores refresh every 30 days. I suggest signing up for one on the 1st of the month, then the other on the 15th. Then going forward on every 1st/15th you'll have an updated EX FICO 8.
Sounds like we may have a difference of pathway, to get to the screen?
These are the steps I take:

Me too.
There is a path to credit score under menu/account as I posted above but it's going to the other service.
My guess was that's what is happening to the OP. /shrugs
