CIC Triple Advantage - Freecreditreport.com began withdrawing $14.95 a month from my bank account. This fee was not clearly described in the sign up information. I cancelled my account as soon as I noticed the fee on my transaction information, and requested that my bank investigate them. There is a seven day grace period after signing up for account with CIC, after that they start charging. Again, this is not clear in the sign up area of website.

#6 Consumer Suggestion

It's in the commercial.

It's also stated at the end of every commercial for freecreditreport.com. I've heard it so many times it's memorized. It states, "Offer applies with enrollment in Triple Advantage."
