Clout Visa Card
Rip-Off Makes Unprofessional Business Calls Asking for Social Security Numbers

I am a college student and have twice received calls from Clout: once while a senior in highschool and once as a freshman in college. Clout offers some type of student credit card application and after holding you on the line for close to a half-hour gathering information, they ask for you social security number. It is not my policy to give my SS# over the phone to anyone besides my bank. I don't understand why they needed my SS# to send me an info package. The telemarketer acted exasperated both times and asked multiple times (even after i denied) for my SS#. After the first of such calls, my father emailed the company telling them that this was poor business practice. I guess the policies haven't changed.
