Good chance these were already leaked with the equifax debacle.
Exactly what I was going to say. I froze everything after that will keep it frozen forever. So easy to temp thaw when I want to apply for something.
Big 3 credit bureaus
Chexsystems for banks
Lexus Nexus for you know, everything
And there's one for utilities too that escapes me at the momentMake a social security account if you haven't already so no one else can
What did you do to freeze your stuff? And how do you thaw it for stuff, and how long does it take? I did go ahead and make my My Social Security account after seeing your comment though!
They all have web sites.
Search Experian +security freeze
Equifax +security freeze
TransUnion +security freeze
Chexsystems +security freezeEtc. Note they offer paid things too. But the freezes are free by law.
Thanks!
