Can you check your credit history score online?
One place to check is annualcreditreport.com. They can show you (once yearly) what information is contained on your credit report but not your score. If you want to see your actual score you will need to find a credit score website and pay a monthly fee. The best and most up-to-date credit score site I've found is zendough.com.
Does paying twice monthly on a credit card help raise your credit score?
Probably not. The formula used to compute credit scores is proprietary, which means only the 3 companies that make your credit score know exactly what factors affect it and how; however, what gets reported to them is whether or not you pay as agreed. What that means is whether or not you paid the minimum payment due during each billing cycle. If you do, it helps your credit score. Paying twice may indirectly help your credit score by lowering the amount of debt you owe, but twice monthly payments are not something that is reported to the bureaus that is factored into your score.
How often does your credit score change?
One's credit score is in a constant state of flux because any change in the credit report results in the bureau automatically recalculating your credit score. In general, assuming that one is not actively looking for new credit, is paying off their existing credit lines on time, is not growing balances and is not filing for bankruptcy, your score will change in a minor way every two-to-three (2-3) months.
