FreeCreditReport.com is a Rip Off!

Cartoon of a spotlight shining on a robber in black holding bags of money. He has a surprised look on his face.

A credit report from FreeCreditReport.com is often anything but free. The fine print reveals that you are really signing up for a free 7-day credit monitoring trial.

If you find a $14.95 charge on your credit card reading "InfoFCR.com," you have overstayed your welcome at FreeCreditReport.Com.

Despite Federal Trade Commission orders to refund $1.25 million in "ill-gotten" gains, Experian still markets their flagship TripleAdvantage credit monitoring as a simple free credit report or free credit score.

If TripleAdvantage credit monitoring is such a valuable service, why not try to sell it on its merits?
