Credit Repair Attorney

Despite a lot of opposition to the forthcoming law that would allow consumers to freeze their credit reports, another of the ‘big three’ credit reporting bureaus has announced a program that would allow consumers to do just that.  The story appeared on the Washington Post, and it’s also becoming apparent that it won’t be long before all three credit bureaus offer the same option to protect consumers.“Consumer credit reporting bureau Experian today announced that it would allow consumers in all 50 states to freeze their credit histories, becoming the second of the three national credit bureaus to offer the freeze option.

The service, which will be offered in all 50 states and the District of Columbia starting Nov. 1, gives consumers another option for safeguarding their credit file against identity thieves. The file freeze will be free for ID theft victims, and cost $10 to place, temporary lift, or remove for all others.”

While this option offers another means of protection to consumers, you should still do everything you can to repair your credit if it needs improvement.  Contact the credit repair attorneys at Smith & Garg today to get that process started.
