Countywide sent me a letter stating that an employee (now fired) had sold personal information to an unknown third party. No adiional information on who
when or what was offered or is made available.
Anyone who has a similar letter should keep it for future Lawsuits!
Countrywide offerred to provide at no charge a free credit monitoring srvice,
by CONSUMERINFO.com. This is a subsidiary of EXPERIAN.
The signup process for this service repeatedly tried to con me into subscribing to a variety of paid (NOT FREE) services. The signup is constantly trying to lead the consumer into signing up for other services. Avoiding these is very difficult.
After I finally completed the Application for the FREE Service, I discovered it is limited to a once a month notification of any changes on my credit record. For example, I might get a notice that an credit inquiry had been made or a payment was reported late. I would not be told, who when or what actually happened. Iin order to get any details on these changes I must pay for the report. A pretty SLEAZY and SNEAKY way to do business.
Also Note that FREECREDITREPORT.com is an even Sneakier susidiary of Experian.
You can get one free annual report from each Credit Bureau at www.annualcreditreport.com
