Comments:

To allow these firms to advertise "free credit reports" is foolishness... they, like a lot of others, put their disclaimers at the bottom of their ads and they are so small no one could read them, even if they allowed them to be on the TV screen for any length of time. They should be REQUIRED to have MINIMUM size Font (big enough to read) and ALSO required to have the disclaimer displayed for a minimum of 30 seconds. That would eliminate some of the problems -- and the ads. REB
