OT - The four major credit bureaus in the US will be allowed, starting July 1, to release your credit info, mailing addresses, phone numbers, etc., to anyone who
requests it.
If you would like to 'opt out' of this release of your info, you can call 1-888-567-8688.
It only takes a couple of minutes to do, and you can take
care of anyone else in the household while making only one call, you'll just need to know their social security number.
Once the message starts you'll want option #2 and then option #3 - Be sure to listen closely, the first option is only for a two-year period. Make sure you wait until they prompt for the third option that opts you out forever. I received their paperwork in the mail confirming my 'opting out' within
less than one week of making the call.
