1) Kellogg Cred. Union just compromised my s.s. #, etc. Ought to be a law... by Anonymous Citizen on August 1, 2007
THAT if a banking institution, business, etc. compromises your data through theft, etc., that they have to pay for your subscription for monitering your credit report FOR LIFE. They never even apoligized in their letter to me or the tons of others affected by this. The lady that did my nails said that this was the SECOND time in TWO YEARS that this had happen to her through this credit union in Battle Creek. We are talking EVERYTHING was stolen in terms of identification in a robbery from a vendor they used for god knows what off of one of their computers. Birthdate, s.s., name, address, telephone, you name it. They offered to pay for one year of credit monitering. I'll need to do it FOR LIFE now. Plus, I had the computer knowledge to do it. What about the old people that DON'T. It just sucks.
