I wanted to put a Credit Freeze on my account with the 3 Credit Services. Before I was done (took a very long time to jump through all of their hoops) I was not thinking too kindly of one of my Friendly Credit Services...
A Hoop...By clicking "Submit and Continue": I
accept and agree to your Terms of Use Agreement, as well as acknowledge receipt
of your Privacy Policy. (If I want to get my Credit
Freeze set up, I have to agree to their rules.)
Here are their rules...
A Hoop...I authorize FriendlyCreditServices.com, Inc.,
also referred to as ("FCS"), to obtain my credit report and/or credit
score(s), on a recurring basis to:
- Provide
my credit report (and/or credit score) to me for review while I have an
account with FCS.
- Notify
me of other products and services that may be available to me
through FCS or through unaffiliated third parties. (I did the
underlining.) I DON’T WANT THIS HARRASSMENT BUT
HAVE NO CHOICE IF I WANT MY CREDIT FREEZE SET UP!
- Notify
me of credit opportunities and advertised credit offers. (I
did the underlining.) I DON’T WANT THIS HARRASSMENT
BUT HAVE NO CHOICE IF I WANT MY CREDIT FREEZE SET UP!
I’m being shoved
around by the Friendly People at FCS but I started to come up with a plan
because I still thought they might be my Friends.
I decided to read
through their Friendly Terms of Use Agreement. I am sure that somewhere
in there there will be a place where they will allow me to state my Friendly
Objection to their bombarding me with other products and services that may
be available to me through FCS or through unaffiliated third parties and notify
me of credit opportunities and advertised credit offers. I DON’T WANT THIS HARRASSMENT BUT HAVE NO CHOICE IF I WANT MY
CREDIT FREEZE SET UP!

It’s time for a Fella
In Other Words...In other words they are forcing me to give them permission
to harass me with time consuming interruptions to my day that (because of the
Internet Interruption Filled World we live in) is already full of time
consuming interruptions!
Oh, I almost forgot, (that’s a Fella Lie because I always intended to put this Fella Tirade right here in this Blog Posting)...
FCS’ Terms of Use Agreement is 26,045 words long!
If there is an
exception in there somewhere, what do you think are my chances of finding that
exception in 26,045 words?
Would I kid u?
