:: Do I have to purchase score reports???????

My understanding was that for $89.99 myFICO.com service fees I'd get reports from all 3 credit report agensies: TU, Equifax, Experian. After I signed up for 30 day free trial I've learned I have to pay EXTRA to get TU and Experian. Am I missing something? Maybe after 30 day free trial the score in "My purchases" tab section will appear? Sorry for the dumb questions and thx in advance for ur replySmiley Happy

If I would like to purchase Suze Orman's Platinum pack, do I still have to pay $89.99 plus $49 for Suzes? Or I can chose one or the other?

The ScoreWatch program only follows Equifax (see below--this is the ad from this site.) Any EX or TU scores and reports will go poof after 30 days, so be sure to print them out. I don't have the Suze product, but my understanding is that it's a one-time pull of all three scores, plus various coaching tips, so there doesn't really sound like an overlap. The handy thing about ScoreWatch is that even though you only get two free (pre-paid) EQ pulls, others are discounted to $10.95. Full price for EX and TU pulls. If you think that you just want a good, thorough one-time set of reports and analyses, you probably don't need ScoreWatch. SW is good for us obsessives!

My understanding is that myFICO would love to offer monitoring and repeat pulls of all three services, but EX and TU won't play. All the services have their own version of this, so I guess they don't want to watch all their customers switch over, in order to get real FICO scores.

And finally, if you need really detailed credit reports, you need to buy each directly from the individual bureaus (including via annualcreditreport.com), not from any monitoring service like myFICO, TrueCredit, CreditWatch, etc. The reports from the services don't have as much detail as the ones you get directly from the CRA's (bureaus), especially on payment history.

Re: :: Do I have to purchase score reports???????

Than ou, haulingthescoreup! Now after reading your reply, please see if i still get it correct. With myFICO's annual pay of almost $90 I am getting only TWO pulls of my CS report from EQ a year? If i need to check on it more often I need to pay 10.95? Sorry, but I am totally confused Smiley Sad Plus u r saying "Any EX or TU scores and reports will go poof after 30 days" but all I have is ??? marks for my TU and EX scores under "My purchases tab". Thank you!
