IME, too.
I thought from the OP's story, though, it may be a more clear-cut case if there really was no relationship between the bank and the person.

So, besides credit karma (especially due to inaccuracies) what sites are out there with FICOs and not FACOs? And of those, which are free?

Citi identity monitor
myfico.com
Shows Fico.com and citi are $4.95 and $1 respectively for 30 days. No brainer to do citi but are both FICOs or FACOs? Any coupons or promo codes for these? Thanks.

Nevermind

Don't see anything regarding myfico.com

Are you inferring that Credit Karma gives you your FICO?

No. From what they say here, it's a FACO. I was just talking about free sites.

You can get free FICO scores every month automatically when you sign up for the discover card.  See Dan's link below and get $75.  In addition to 1% on all purchases, they give you 5% on different categories every quarter.  Last quarter it was online purchases (including charitable donations)

Yah I've been hearing about Discover It, but is it even worth it to have just for scores and do you get FACOs or FICOs?

Don't have this Discover card but if the shopping portal is the same as their other cards I would go for it.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

That is a decision you will have to make. I can only add to CV's response, that yes, the 'It' card does give you access to the portal.
