Being Smart with $$ -- It's Free to Freeze. Your Credit, That Is.


It’s 80 degrees out and I’m Freezing.  And the best part is that now it’s free to Freeze!

As of last Friday, we will no longer pay a fee to freeze or unfreeze our credit at the three major credit bureaus.  Freezing your credit may provide the highest level of protection against identity theft and should prevent anyone from accessing new credit in your name.  It may be inconvenient when you need to apply for new credit but the protection this action offers may be worth it.  Compare the inconvenience of freezing your credit to that of having your identity stolen.  And did I mention it’s now free?
