Now they have Amercians beleiving identity theft is the fastest growing crime in America and you have to protect yourself from the thieves. This is a load of Crap! If you want to protect your self opt out of the mailing list, go to www.optoutprescreen.com and the best part is it costs the bureaus money in lost revenue!

But as mentioned above, they don't give you your score and you can only get one free report per year from each agency. It's also good to keep track of your FICO score as well, and that is never free no matter where you go. MyFico.com has a service called Score Watch that is great for tracking your credit score.

Anything that I think I might have problems cancelling (like AOL) put on a credit card. I accidentally signed up for a CD club when I only wanted to purchase one CD (on relaxation-ha,ha). The number you were supposed to call was always going to a full mailbox! I finally emailed them, then I called my credit card company and put a 4 month freeze on the card. I never recieved anymore unwanted CDs and I am not supposed to use the card anyway. Here is where having a credit card really came in handy.

One of the reasons we started Search Free Apps (www.SearchFreeApps.com), which you recommended right after our launch was to save people the time of figuring out whether free was really free. We assumed that people likes free trials, but are tired of forgetting to cancel. So, we only include free trials where no credit card is required. Of course, we also include services that are 100% free. I thought your readers might be interested to know that we now have over 970 distinct free services.
