Just log in to your account and under Account Services tab you will find view FICO Score. You have to be enrolled in paperless statements.

Apparently it is a TransUnion score. None the less FREE though. Enjoy. :yahoo:

Thanks for the alert. It's great to get a free FICO score for a change instead of the FAKO scores which vary so much.

I wonder if this will motivate some high(er) rollers to get a Walmart card just for the FICO.

Very nice, now I have access to my free monthly TU score! Woot! Looks like they update the scores the 10th on the month.

Now I just need to motivate myself to somehow join something to get my free monthly EQ score. I am a member of PSECU so I get my EX free, now my TU is free.

Hmm...

Yup, its actually on the right hand side when you are viewing your score. There is a link that says "How often is my FICO score updated?" Very good find, im curious if that was always there and no one really realized it. Thanks for finding and posting this!

Wife's Ashley Furniture (access through main GEMB site) account doesn't have it. :(

Also checked Lowes (access through Lowes site) out of curiosity and that's a no-go too.

It has me thinking about it :rolleyes: Only problem is I was going to Sears today and apply for their card (And I think I've been in a Walmart only once in my life)

I work really close to ours, if I go a single day without going in I am surprised.

Sounds like only Walmart card holders has the FREE FICO score. Chime in if found elsewhere on GEMB accounts.

You should try to lower it to three days per week. Your quality of life will skyrocket. :lol:

Now a noob question...

Is this only available on the store card, or does the Walmart Discover also offer it?

Thanks bunches. :D

And NO, I'm not interested in being a guinea pig. :P

Another Great Find!

This becomes a reason to keep my Walmart store card open..

I was surprised to see my TU Fico about 40 points higher than my Credit Karma Fako.
