Score watch is not giving me alerts

Why is score watch not giving me alerts?

I pulled my report on 10/15 and my score when up a point.

I pulled my report again on 10/19 and my score went up 8 points

I was never notified by score watch...

How do I get a refund if this product is not going to do what it says it would?

Hi coolAunt....Please read my reply to your 10/19 post about this same subject on this board. Or contact myFICO customer care. It's not necessary to post the same issue multiple times. Smiley Happy

Re: Score watch is not giving me alerts

If i'm not mistaken. You will ONLY get alerts when you have a change in your report. That is when you'll get a score alert. Let's say everything remains the same on your report for 3 months. You're score will go up due to stuff aging but Nothing else changed so no alert will be given.

 

You must "force" an alert by using dormant cards and/or purchasing something on a card so that it reports a balance.

Re: Score watch is not giving me alerts

Also, having an inquiry will cause an alert. Anything that triggers an alert will cause it to alert you and if you score changes the alert will notify you about that as well
