Will US government offers its own grungy annual credit report band?”
Nov 03, 2009 U.S. government offers its own grungy credit report band Have you seen those credit report ads with three scruffy guys in a grungy apartment singing about credit reports, or wailing away as a cheesy band in a restaurant? No, not those. We’re talking about the new spoof videos put out by the U.S. government. The Federal Trade Commission says it has received complaints from consumers who thought they were ordering their free annual credit report, but instead paid hidden fees or agreed to unwanted services. “Anyone can write a catchy jingle, but only AnnualCreditReport.com provides you with a truly free credit report,” one of the FTC spots says.
