    Default Credit agencies are a fricken scam!

    After siging up to pay $14.95/month in sep to get my free credit report I then called and canceled, they billed my card in october so I called again and they canceled it. Now I just checked and they billed me again on 11/10!!! So I called them and they said they did not have any record of me calling to cancel, so after yelling at her for 10 minutes to just cancel the fucking thing she was still saying there was a new account opened in my name (I dont know anything about?) this month and I need to keep paying them to protect me, she argued with me for 10 minutes before she agreed to cancel the account! And that was the best part of my day


    What a scam, but now I want to know if something really was opened in my name

    I'll bet you $14.95 they charge you next month too. I just went through this shit with my bank and a company.

    I bet they will! I am gonna start calling them every 2 hours starting tomorrow just to ask if they cancelled the account though.

    Their is a "new account" for $398 "opened" in sep that shows up now, I have no idea what it is? Evidentally they didnt protect me or alert me of it No wonder I cant buy a house.

    So you guys will send 14.95 to a stupid credit scammer but you won't send any $$ to the Barrister of Ethiopia to get a million back...

    Credit report is free to you once a year. Why pay third party to look at your own stuff?

    Yes they will. If you go to Creditkarma.com you can see a full report, including your score for free. However, you'll start receiving credit offers in the mail 4 times a week. After you go there, I'd Google how to unsubscribe from the free offers and improve your score a few points in a matter of weeks. MB888 knows all about it.
