Epic Fail

Well, I just had a wonderful experience with FreeCreditScore.com (run by the credit bureau Experian), and by wonderful I mean I was scammed.

They claim to give you access to your credit score for a free trial. They then tell you that you can check all 3 of the credit bureaus' scores for free once a year. However, they fail to sufficiently notify you of the fact that THEY CHARGE YOU to view all 3 reports! Thieving bastards!

My suggestion: Don't use them. Ever. You can get your reports (all of them) for free from the US Government at AnnualCreditReport. Alternatively, you can also get information mailed to you by checking out the FTC's website. - QBF

PS: Cheating bastards!

QBF just because it says it's FREE doesn't mean it is. Like FAT FREE foods, it's FAT FREE.......if you don't eat it.

LOL! Yes, I have now learned my lesson!

remember the credit score number is never free, you always pay for that. you can get the credit report information (i.e. tradelines, information about payment history, inquiries, everything except the score factor) for free with annual credit report.
In my banking experience, I can't tell you how many times I had to explain this to people.

#WednesdayReviews: "Love Wedding Repeat"

I've no clue what this movie is about, but it's got Olivia Munn in it, and the trailer was nice enough, so I'm guessing its another inoffensive romantic-comedy. So it's time to Love Wedding Repeat . From Google: "Alternate versions of the same wedding unfold as Jack ( Sam Claflin ) tries to make sure his little sister has the perfect wedding day."
