FICO Alerts are wrong/backwards?

[egold1234]

Well my Fico score went from 692 to 724, passing my goal of 705, yet the Fico alert said the exact opposite! In fact it even said: "This decrease in your FICO® score happened on the same day as a change on your Equifax Credit Report™ which triggered an alert." But it increase NOT decreased? Whats going on?

Apparently this has been happening lately.

It looks to me as if your FICO has gone up...not down. I don't know why the mixed messages.

To trick us into buying additional reports? j/k, although thats what I did, just to be certain! Hope they fix this glitch.

That happened to me as well, on the same day.  Not too sure what is going on, but I hope it gets fixed.

This error is being researched and I'll let you all know when it's been resolved. Thanks for letting us know.

Thanks! Also, did the fourms just undergo a facelift?

They did - just today.  If you have feedback, there's a thread going over on the Smorgasboard.  It will take some getting used to for all of us!

Alerts are still opposite of what they should be !

I had the exact same thing happen to me twice. I recieved an alert saying that my score had dropped below my targeted score, when, in fact it had exceeded my target.

This also happened to me today. As a matter of fact it's been happening for some time now. I hope they correct this glitch soon before they start messing with the numbers. As long as the numbers keep going up I can care less what the message says.
