Experian Do Not believe the $1 report. I should have done better due diligence but I consider a company that is held with the responsibility of keeping public records as sensitive as credit information to be l Schauburg, Illinois

I signed up for the $1 report. I found out a few days later I was charged $17.95 and this is a reoccuring charge. I am glad I caught this quickly. I called and asked why I was charged this amount and was told I didnt sign up for the $1 look. This is a suprise to me because I have no idea when I stopped signing up for the $1 and actually signed up for the reoccuring charge. I was told there is no refunds. This is concerning given the fact that this company is responsible for all of our credit histories and has all of our personal information in their hands. Yet they decieve us into thinking we are signing up for a one time look. I still cant figure out what I did to prompt the system into believing I was signing up for anything different. I am usually very cautious about these things. I guess my gaurd was down when I thought that a company who holds this level of sensitive information would be so deceptive. Lesson learned.

i would like to know what website you entered into this 1 dollar agreement?
you can get a free annual credit report from all 3 agencies from annualcreditreport.com and ONLY this website, any other website is a money scam to sign you up for credit monitoring (read fine print).
What is AnnualCreditReport.com?
AnnualCreditReport.com is the ONLY authorized source for the free annual credit report that's yours by law. The Fair Credit Reporting Act guarantees you access to your credit report for free from each of the three nationwide credit reporting companies — Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion — every 12 months. The Federal Trade Commission has received complaints from
consumers who thought they were ordering their free annual credit report, and yet couldn't get it without paying fees or buying other services. TV ads, email offers, or online search results may tout "free" credit reports, but there is only one authorized source for a truly free credit report.
