Place a security freeze on your credit report for FREE! The 3 major credit reporting agencies, Transunion, Equifax & Experian are offering this service to you.
As a matter of fact, placing a freeze is designed to prevent anyone from obtaining credit or getting a loan in your name. With this in mind, it is one way to protect your credit.
I want to emphasize, by placing a security freeze on your credit report, this will NOT affect your credit score. Learn how to get your FREE credit report.
The first thing to remember, is to lift or remove the freeze from the 3 major credit reporting agencies before you start applying for a new credit card, loan or mortgage.
If you forget to lift the freeze, it may delay the approval of your loan, mortgage or credit card.

There are 2 ways to place a freeze. The first option is to go online, to each website and add a security freeze. The second option is to contact each major credit reporting agency by phone.
Another key point is you may freeze a minor child’s credit report.
Be prepared to enter your personal information. For example your name, address, date of birth, & social security number.
Furthermore, for security reasons, you may be asked to answer questions regarding your credit history. For example, when you opened a mortgage, or the name of the institution your auto loan is held.
It’s important to use a secure wifi. A locked home wifi is the best.
In addition, I have included the phone numbers if you are more comfortable making a phone call.
As a result, placing a security freeze on your credit report will protect you from unauthorized individuals from opening credit cards, loans and mortgages in your name.
