Had my 2 and only baddies fall off my record, why hasn't my score improved?

Had 2 derog acc's fall off all 3 of my credit bureau reports and haven't gotten an increase in score. I currently have subscribed to My FICO scorewatch 3 score for a few months and haven't gotten an update saying that they have come off my record. However, I had acess to my revised credit report directly from the bureaus once the baddies fell off so, I am curious why the MyFICO subscribtion I have hasn't reflected that.

Because the bureaus' monitoring which MyFICO uses (OEM) doesn't see that as a change unfortunately.  I've never had any monitoring solution from here or elsewhere that can catch when things other than inquiries get airstruck until the next change which it does track (traditionally a balance change) and you get an increase that is headscratchingly large for the thing that is listed.

 

I went from 3 tax liens to 1 and never once did any monitoring solution track that.  CK might catch it now since it looks like they're comparing report to report for changes.

Funny you should say that when you get an account or whatever reported that the score jump is pretty big! I always figured it was because of that, my scores are very similar to yours as well. Looking forward to getting to the 700 club soon!

Congrats on the remoals!!  I had 2 baddies removed via phone calls today.  They were schedued to come off in a few weeks anyway.  I also have 3b.  Can anyone answer how long it will be before the OP and myself see any changes in our scores??
