Your not the only one.

Googled FICO...Comes back as a credit scoring company.

If you have questions it would best to contact your credit card company just to be sure. It better to be safe ask them too many scams out there not to ask them.

FICO is your credit score. (The letters stand for "Fair, Isaac & Co.)

Or, as some might call it "F****** Idiots Counted Out" (I'd guess those would be the ones with low scores)

Might wanna check and make sure you didn't get caught in one of those consumer protection plans they are always pushing....you know...Get your credit score free when you sign up for a $20 a month Blah Blah Blah.
You can get one credit report free from each of the three companies every year by law.

Thanks for the comments.
The best I can tell is Discover Card is now adding this this FICO to my monthly statement. I did not request it but they think I
SHOULD LIKE IT. :D
I pay my bills and I don't think I need someone to tell me how good I am doing. :o

" Discover cardholders will soon start getting monthly updates of their FICO credit scores with their monthly statements."
