		<description>Score-watch is a good thing, yet in the last 4 years from around $70 grew to now almost $100, per year. My problem with myFico is their way of computing. 

You see, being alien I cannot create or buy time. Therefore I always will be lacking the 18years credit history, or at least another 12-13years. That was the reason to cancel my Score-Watch subscription. I maxed out on the other criterias. It is sad as that stopped me from getting better rate on my mortgage. 750 is where I end, 760 is where the next bracket starts on the mortgages. Other then that, they are not as fast as they say they are to report that someone checked you out. &amp; I wonder how the things will resolve now that the &quot;Big 3&quot; are more of a &quot;Big2+1&quot;. Only time will show. 

To me, it was more of a security tool, knowing who checks me out. &amp; knowing that I can do something about it.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t see the point of paying for your FICO score.  When you go to borrow money, your lender will tell you what your score is for no extra charge.  At least, that&#039;s what the loan officer at our credit union did when my husband took out an auto loan with them.

We had a good idea of what it might be even before she told us because we knew our credit to debt ratio and our bill paying habits.</description>

		<description>Yes, CK and a few other sites will gladly offer a non-FICO score for you for free.   The problem is that no lender ever checks your credit karma score, so it&#039;s pretty much just an estimate that can be off significantly.   

Such free scores are best used to track significant changes in your credit report.  (If it drops by 50 points, something is up.)  CK uses Transunion data only.</description>

		<description>I wonder if grabbing scores and reports on Scorewatch and then canceling will lower the credit score?</description>
