Comments:

I would like to see the three credit bureaus not try to sell consumers anything until AFTER they obtain their report, and I would like to see the process at AnnualCreditReport.com NOT link out to the credit bureaus at all except to obtain the free report. I had used the site before, and knew to avoid the "offers" in order to just get my report, and I felt like I had to be hypervigilant to wend my way around those offers to get what I came for. If we are asking the People to trust only AnnualCreditReport.com, it should keep in line with most other Government web sites and not endorse or offer private commercial services.
