Experian Wants Lifelock Out experian要lifelock列

I wrote a post back on April 29 about LifeLock.我寫的後回到4月29日約lifelock 。 My husband and I plan to join the service.我和我丈夫的計劃,投入服務。 It costs about $10 per month and offers Identity Theft Protection, Reduced Junk Mail and Reduced Credit Card Offers, and is backed by a $1 Million Service Guarantee.它的成本約10元,每月並提供身份盜用保護,減少垃圾郵件和減少信用卡的優惠,並得到了一百萬元的服務保障。

Experian is one of the major credit reporting bureaus in the USA and they do not like that LifeLock places fraud alerts for Lifelock members. experian是其中一項主要的信用報告局在美國和他們不喜歡這個地方lifelock欺詐警報lifelock成員。 Experian is now suing experian現在起訴 lifelock , alleging “credit laws do not provide for a third party to place fraud alerts on behalf of a consumer.” Placing fraud alerts, preventing fraud losses, issuing credit reports and investigating identity theft are among the corporate charges of the credit-reporting bureau. ,聲稱“信用法律不提供一個第三黨的地方欺詐警報代表一個消費者” 。配售欺詐警示,防止欺詐損失,簽發信用報告和調查身份盜竊是其中的企業收費的信用報告局。 However, they do not like using their resources to set alerts on behalf of Lifelock’s clients.不過,他們不喜歡使用他們的資源,設定警報的名義lifelock的客戶。

Lifelock also provides opt-out services for pre-approved junk mail, which is cutting into the very lucrative practice of selling your credit history to lenders so that they may send you those new credit card and balance transfer offers. lifelock還提供了選擇退出服務,預先核准的垃圾郵件,這是削減到非常有利可圖的做法,出售您的信用記錄,以放款人,使他們可能會向您發送這些新的信用卡和餘額轉帳優惠。

While credit bureaus do very well with giving out consumer information so that lenders may up-sell, cross-sell customers while managing risk, they actually do little to help you straighten out your credit or identity when it is stolen.而信用局做的非常好,給消費者的信息,以便放款人可能最多出售,交叉銷售客戶,而風險管理,其實他們做的很少,以協助您理順您的信用卡或身份時,這是被盜。 [圖片]
