Clarification on Identity Verification

[Anonymous]

 I tried to purchase myfico 3B advance scores on Saturday, and it told me to call in and Verify my Identity. I called when they opened this morning, and I was informed that I have to have two active cards reporting for at least 6 months at my current address. I think. I don't remember her wording exactly, but I understood that I was unable to get access at this time.

I am in the process of moving, would updating my address on my cards reset the 6 month timer? Or do the cards themselves just have to be older than 6 months, and have my current address associated with them? 

I can continue to receive mail at my current billing address (friends with current tenants), so do I need to hold off updating my address until I can access myFico? (That seems a little dramatic, but honestly, I am really wanting a better way to document my score change as my garden thrives)

thank you in advance if you can provide some clarity.

You'll need at least one account open for 6 months and at least one account that has been reporting for 6 months. It doesn't have to be at the same address. If you need more clarification, we can have a customer service rep call you.
