Equifax Credit Bureau has been a pain in my *ss since 2003. They were bad then but I know it was a matter of time before they really screwed-up. Equifax and the other two credit bureau's fought the "Credit Bureau Freeze Laws" from 2003 to 2007. But with the help of Consumer Union (San Francisco Office) and other consumer advocates across America, they had to give up in November 2007.
We started with 4 states in January 2005 and by November 2007, we had 42 separate state laws governing "Credit Bureau Freeze Laws".
If you are worried about the Equifax Security Breach, all you have to do is "Freeze Your Credit Bureau FIles Yourself". Once they are frozen, only you and your current creditors can gain access to your credit files. In Texas, we call it "Padlocking the Barn Door Before the Horses Get Out". Any questions, go to www.identitytheftvictims.us we site. Mine has been frozen since September 2006 at all three bureaus. It does work!
