Score Watch Duplicate Accounts?

On my score watch alerts, 3 of my accounts produce duplicate alerts.  So when my Chase, Discover and 1 AMEX update their balances, it shows each twice.

 

When these accounts were new, it showed them twice too.  

 

Is this glitch affecting my score somehow?

Re: Score Watch Duplicate Accounts?

It's your settings. SW will alert you if your balances increased by $x and by x%, with "x" being whatever value you put in your settings. By default, it'll alert you to both. I think the default values are $5 and 5%. So, if a balance change is greater than $5 and 5%, assuming that's the default value, then you'd see two alerts for the exact same TL. It can get confusing when you see it for the first time. If annoying, you can turn one value off and will only get a single alert going forward.
