Getting the largest source of non-mortgage debt removed from my credit score last year should have had a positive effect on my credit score...
So I went to check.
Everyone wants a lot of information up front and once you provide it, they force you to make an account with them.
I'm not looking for a relationship, I just wanna fuck.
I get why they need to collect most of the information, but once they have it that should be enough to give me a result.
The way they're going about this reminds me of a lot of bait and switch free offers where it's easy to sign up, and nearly impossible to cancel and they have your payment information so you get to pay while you're trying to get it shut down.
Well gosh! However do you expect them to be able to sell your information if you don't provide data?
ReplyDeleteYeah, I usually turn away from the web site and leave them hanging if the data mining pages come into view.
Funny thing is my Credit Union gladly posts my credit score on their page when I go and look at my account. Are they mining me? Maybe, but seeing as I have been a member for 45 years, starting when the CU was actually my then employer's in-house Credit Union, which over the years morphed into a larger and larger entity by gobbling up others, there is damned near nothing they don't know already. I am kind of hoping my data is so old that it will be archived for posterity and not used for current shenanigans.
a few months back when the powers that be told us all about the huge data leak i went to the 3 major credit places online and signed up and froze all my crap...out of the 3, 1 will let you use the app on your phone with the same username and password (experian)...it will give you a shit ton of daily updates (annoying) and show you your credit score for free...just fyi...panzer guy
