Great guide by Michael Bazzell on freezing your credit and removing your personal data from data consolidation sites. A good project for the entrepreneurial and capable to build a service for removing your personal data from all the sites listed on Michael’s guide.
Question from one of my friends “Will we be able to use credit cards after the freeze ?”
Yes, you can :). The credit freeze is stop fraudulent cards/accounts being opened on your name. If you are applying for a new card, you need to “unfreeze” your credit and then freeze it back again.. kinda like putting a lock on your credit.
