FEEcreditreport.com

Basically, even though the website says FREEcreditreport.com, you need to read the fine print. They charge a 12.95 fee to your credit card, on a MONTHLY basis, to check your credit report there. I figured that a service run by Experian wouldn’t rip me off, but I was wrong. I found out when I saw charges from “CIC*CE CREDIT REPORT 8003888725″ on my past two credit statements. To be fair, it does state that they will charge you on their website if you read the fine print which is in blue text over a blue background.
Their deceptive practices have been posted by other websites, so do a Google search and see for yourself. I called my credit card and contested the charges. They may win, but I’ll make sure they have to work for their 26 bucks.
By the way, if you want to check your credit, the right website is annualcreditreport.com.
BASTARDS!
