WaMu card holders get free credit scores
I just logged into my Washington Mutual credit card to make a payment at www.wamucards.com and saw that they post your current credit score so you can see it.
The FICO score is used by most financial institutions to gauge creditworthiness. It is calculated using the three major credit bureaus. You have been able to get your credit reports for free once a year from each of the three agencies because the U.S. government mandated it. But credit scores are usually only made available if you pay to get it or when you apply for credit or a loan. This is going to be a great tool for me to track my financial stability. If you want a WaMu credit card they have some pretty nice deals.

Do they offer this feature with just a checking account? I think it’s a great way to keep up with your credit score, because you’ll be seeing it every month when you’re paying the bill.
I would like my FICO score.
