How long to wait for SW to pick up change?

[Anonymous]

I know I am probably being a bit impatient here.  I got an alert from 2 other credit monitoring services I have that my new Capital One card reported to my report.  I haven't received an alert yet from SW. 

How long should I wait to see SW pick this up?  I know we get alerts every 7-10 days if things don't cause a change, but something has caused a change so where is the alert?  I don't mind waiting a day or maybe even three but when other services are picking it up and emailing me pronto, I have to wonder, yet again, about the quality of the service that myfico provides.

Are you 100% certain it is showing on EQ? Once it shows on EQ, then give it a day or so before you get an alert. It's not uncommon for new TLs to show on EX first (and seldom TU first) before EQ.

Absolutely positive it is showing on EQ and TU now, although it did show up on EQ first.  It was alerted yesterday.  I think to be fair I will give it a week, even though it is killing me to see what it does to my score.

I just got a SW alert for this account.  Thankfully, I didn't have to wait a week. 

Got an 11 point increase for adding a revolving line. YAYAYAYAYA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
