Hi Folks,
 
Here is a question that I received from a friend.  Do any of you have any experience with this or know anything about it?
 
Thanks!

Subject: Credit  Protection question

Hi Colleen, 


Per our discussion the other night, here's my question:

Would the most practical and economical way to really protect my credit with each of the Big 3 Bureaus be to pay them $10 each to lock my credit, and then, as needed, another $10 to unlock my credit?  For example, I might want to check my credit report, and believe that I would have to unlock my account to do this.

 

This seems like a really solid way to protect my credit-- unless there are a number of other activities that my credit would have to be unlocked for of which I am currently unaware.

 

The alternative is to monitor all three services at one cost that would be lower--  however, you would know about an intrusion "after" the fact.

 

Do you have any information on this?

 

Thanks!

Barry
